IRISH you wop

Dumela all you lucky sh!theads living the life under palm trees, It must really suck.
I hear that Knobjuice is on his way over this weekend, if this continues It`s going to start a huge exodus.
Is everyone flying Islanders ? If that`s the case then you can keep it
Irish I think I will fit one of those bushies from XaiXai into Tuka`s box cause I know you must be missing them by now

Won't you put some castle in Tuka's box - Muna after croc there's 4 more Kiwis on the way down here - its going to be Maun by the sea! There's a few 1900's around and otters but loads of islanders, but more importantly lots of time off, a beach and a medical university!
Cheers Raa

Some one say DC3?

I'm bored, bored, bored, bored, bored. Please furnish further info and allow some one gatvol of corporate k*k, snot en trane to once again soar the wild blue yonder, ride upon a star, reach for the sky.... "sob", it's just too romantic for me. The cure of course is beer, and lots of it so if you gentlemen and ladies would allow me to stand you all one when and if it comes together, I would be honoured. ...Thereafter I hope to just be trashed between bouts of Pratt and Whitney induced deafness.....

Knobjuice, all the intrigueing little adverts you ripped off while huffing and puffing in a little red phonebooth....disappeared outta the office, probably stuck up in the loo in the DA house

a small brainfart during C-of-T saw AJJ proceeding down da RWY 08 in a shower of sparks...
Maun ATC: "AJJ 'arrival' time 1605, next right to maintenance..."
Delta Scare Crash Test Dummy: (in slow Kiwi drawl) "hang on mate, we aint done crashin' yet...."
holy beejeezus...down to 3 206's ! Waz got AJB up here, so gonna be turnin' & burnin' in PWS' pride & joy!

So hows Kang been treating you - back to Maun now for some repeated abuse! All very good down here and awaiting the arrival of some more alcoholics. Spent all day yesterday hooning around on a speedboat and getting ratted - its a real bitch! Since your making gold now get your ass down here for a holiday.
Enjoy Maun and say howdy to all those slack ****s.
Cheers Raaaaa

Swamp Rat.All I can say is JGFYC (just get ****ed you ****). All the rest of you fags, I'll be having some Hairoun beers for you all. Will hopefully see Josh and Frankie pretty soon. In the meantime, I'm spending my time in St Vincent looking for sluts. Brado seems to be the authority on that matter now. He's making up for lost time for never having been laid in Maun, although there might be a 15yr old schoolgirl who challenge that!!!!! Sean, I got your email. Will reply to it soon.
Copya later fags

Exclamation

I have been getting quite a lot of e-mails lately asking for information on flying in Maun, and Maun in general, so instead of replying to everyone individually here it is,

The season in Maun begins about end of May begining of June and lasts until about November. The best time to pitch up looking for a job is around Jan or Feb when the companys start looking for new guys to fly the next season, it takes about two to three months to do your line training and get your work and resident permits before going on line.
There are eight companys based in Maun and between fifty and sixty full time pilots live and work out of Maun.
The fleets vary but all fly the C-206, other A/C incude C-172, 207, 210, Cessna Grand Vans, and Islanders.

I think what will also help is reading through this thread and figure out what all the lads are like, this will give you a good idea

Surf's Up !!!!
I spent my sunday on the island paradise of Bequia, surrounded by crystal clear waters( yes Wazza, the CLARITY of the water was incredible), with yachts, many palm tress and teenage american sluts, practising my surfing and drinking ice cold beers. I thought about you fags back in Maun.....but not for very long!!
Wazza, what's the story, you coozer. I think I heard one piece of good news. It's made my whole year, but not my hole weak!!! Email me you loser.
