Video of life in a day flying in Maun

Quite a thrilling view...though gave me the bends a little!

What is the average sector altitude? Have there been any incidents of scraping vegetation on some of these short strip approaches?

Are D-VORs and NDBs sufficiently reliable if GPS fails or is it dead reckoning?

How difficult is flying close to dusk?Am sure no nighties!

I notice engine idling during transits even when pilot leaves his office (to take a leak in the bush perhaps?

Nice work mate! It looks not as picturesque as I thought it might...may be due to the dry season.

Any encounters with hungry pack of Lions on landing? How do you tackle that?

Kudos for a commendable effort lilflyboy
