But there was some heavy showers sometimes...so maybe temp 0
Yabon !

I dont think the Temp can ever go down to 0 in Mwanza.

As far as The Tire problem is concerned, the Auto brake malfunctioned.

I Still have the NAV log for that flight, and I want to reconfirm with you the Visibility reported by Mwanza tower on our approach was 5000 Meters.

Cheers

LF

Devil

eeeeerrr!!!
406737pilot, you don't handle the South African beer anymore or what, traning is making you tired. I don't think you know who Yabon is but I know that his next machine is not a PA-28 and he's not going to live around the lake any longer. I bet you'll even see him in Dar a lot. Refueling.

howzit shenzi


i kept away from the s.a. beer through out the duration...no offence.

i might not know the identity of yabon but my words sure put a padlock on his waste gate...

i believe this website/column is as good as we the responsible columnist decide to make it so i urge the likes of yabon and co not to rush into writting the news as soon as it breaks with their self induced accessment...i certainly dont think there was a race as to who would be the first to write the breaking news....

keep it up there fellows,

no more 406pilot

ps:karibu sana to dar yabon whenever that happens send me a pm im not that bad a guy as long as the beers are flowing free of charge

Hi 406pilot,

Sorry about this delay....

You said:

Do we know each other?

In fact...do you know me? If so...I'd like to know on which criterias you based your judgement...

Anyway...I'm ready to put the counter back to 0...As pilots, we shouldn't do this childy stuff...but help each other!
If you pass by Arusha...Mp me before...I'm sure we can have a nice chat around some beers...

P.S: Hey Shenzy...I still owe you some...when do u plan a trip back to Tz??

Off the topic,I just want to ask if one of you Mwanza guys have a German name that starts with an "H" and do you know a Yugoslav flying for a geophysical survey company.Met you at Rhapsody's in Pretoria about 9 months ago when we all went for a few beers with the above mentioned individual,you did your 406 rating through the company that I work for.

Weird posting but I would like to get in contact with this person,also for a few beers when you are home again!

By the-way-the owner of the one companies there is a slimy character and he owes me money,fired me for refusing to fly in bad weather and over-weight.(He likes curry and that 206 does not climb well,he probably crashed it already anyway!)

PM me if it's one of you.

Chao
