Kinshasa?
 
Gidday Guys,

I was woundering if any of you fine aviators out there could help me out here.

Me and a mate of mine are very interested in going to Kinshasa to do some serious flying. Both of us have flown in Congo before we are quite familiar with the Eastern Part in particular Beni, Bunia, Goma, Isiro, Buta, I've actually been all the way to Gbadolite.

Now over the past couple of years through meeting with various other pilots and talking to them we have noticed that there is some serious flying around Kinshasa and we want part of the action!!! So my question is where do we start?

Does one just Rock Up and pretty much go and visit all these operators?

Is there alot of Networking Required? Ie buying Loads of beers if thats the Case No-problems I love beer!!!!

Is accomodation Really expensive in Kinshasa?

What kind of licence conversions are we talking about? OR Do you just buy your Conversion?

How many operators are there in Kinshasa? Who are they? Is any time a good time to go interms of hiring?

Is it worth calling these operators up before investing the time and money into what could be a seriously Wonderful adventure?


I think that's all my questions for the time being. Any help would be much appreciated and will be refunded ten fold with loads of Beer!!!

Ohh I forgot there was one last very important question I wanted to ask. Is there any good P**sy in Kinshasa???


Thanks Guy's
