From what I have heard, it is destined for francistown as there is more space, both on the ground and in the air, and a better lifestyle there. More tempting to bring the pilots from Gabs as opposed to them having to move to maun.
When I was in that neck of the woods there was a popular theory that Gabs was the a**hole of africa and Francistown was a long way up it.
OTOH whoever invented that theory had obviously never been to Orapa.
