New Nairobi/Kenya Dash8 Operator

Good morning,

I don't know how much truth in this so wondering if someone in the know down there can either confirm or deny this one.

I basically heard that there may be a new operation being set up in Kenya, I think in Nairobi, supposed to operate Dash 8's.

Anyone any info on this one and a name if possible.

Regards,

SJ.

Forgive my ignorance, i'm not familiar with that part of the world, where exactly is Wilson in relation to Nairobi or Kenya in general?

Thanks.

Cool

Kenya - East Africa, Nairobi - Capital City...used to be known as the "Green city in the sun", Wilson Airport - South West of the city center busy GA airport ( can be seen clearly on google!)
Hope this helps with orientation!

Yap. Wilson airport used mainly for local flights and those to sudan or somalia for humanitarian aid.
About 15 min drive from Nairobi CBD. Nairobi is the capital of kenya. Kenya is in the eastern part of Africa. Hope you can spot Africa coz I wouldnt be able to help you there mate.

Specs listed are for command. Dunno on which a/c

Thanks for the info, I only hear good things about Kenya but as the previous poster has asked, any info on some of the companies operating out of there, big or small? Just the short n sweet version.
