Aviation in Africa is not a walk in the park, even for Stelios...

Fastjet faces having planes repossessed - Telegraph

Is the air getting thin up there for FastJet?

Let’s face it, Stelios’ boys messed up. The failure of FastJet to commence operations in Kenya first is from what the grapevine says entirely due to their dispute with Fly540. This is the lucrative market they wanted, not Tanzania. That was a second or third choice but in the end they had no option. Aircraft were purchased, crews recruited and they had to start earning revenue.
