Dear Grizzly,
Please get more information before insulting all the pilots in DRC, that they bought theyre licence....

For your information, it's a ZS registered airplane. That airplaine belong to a certain Barman, ex-Sunair.
He was overlaoded.....

Here in Congo, not all pilots buy theyr licence. Like you can see when a crash occurs , it can happen to anyone, FAA pilots, SA pilots, JAR pilots....

So next time please get informations before insulting people_
