I have already seen this ATR on short finals at FAJS but I thought it was an Air Botswana flight but yesterday I saw it inbound from the east around 17:15. I could not see any makings or registration, the aircraft is white with a blue (?) underside.
Is this a passenger or freight aircraft and who is the operator?

ATR is operated by Pelican Air. Returning from Vilanculos. Which would explain the direction you saw it approaching from

Thank you for the info...where ever Vilanculos is :confused: "Is that a new name for some town in the new SA" :p. Do I have to replace my maps & charts again, man :{
I'm a bit out of the aviation scene at FAJS....strange airlines and aircraft rocking up at FAJS, saw Zambia Airways B737 this morning on the apron.
