View Full Version : Lubumbashi Airport Ground Handling
Anyone who has any personal experience into Lubumbashi (FBM/FZQA), Congo D.R.? Who provides ground handling there and if they have the GSE like MDLs, Tail-stand, etc for a 747F? Can someone share their view?

If they have external power, assume it does not operate.
Be sure your APU works to go there.
No guarantees they have fuel. Might take a small "commission" to get some.
I doubt they have a tail stand. If they had one, probably been stolen long ago.

Happy contrails
Strange, I was looking into FBM the other day for a charter.
Short answer is due to construction, rwy length shortened to 8000ft...
