Hey,

Just trying to think of one AIR CHARTER OPERATOR in Tanzania that does not have a twin or a turbine. That is one or the other. Someone will probably prove me wrong here. But I think if they dont have twins they have turbine ie Vans and if they dont have turbine they have a twin. Oh well lets see what you people out there can come up with.

Thanks guys.

Thats very helpful.

I did try searching and did manage to get a bit of info... though it was rather disjointed and not easy to put together a comprehensive list re: twins and turbines.

I figured if those of you had the time and could be bothered, it wouldn't hurt to create a sort of list here... for future searchs. :)

Contact details wouldn't hurt but i guess company name, location and an idea of a/c operated would be more important... especially for those of us who are deciding/making travel plans.

Cheers,

Rosi

I dont know about that Mr Pandya. (I hope I got the spelling correct) The fellow was asking about twin AND twin turbine operators OR single turbine operators. Bloody hell I am getting confused now. Anyway does Coastal not have a Kingair operating at the moment? See you in the next few days Sir, and dont blow away my Aztec with your 406:ok:
