Have you seen the size of Africa?
Dar Es Salaam is 1300nm's+ in a straight line to Jo'burg.

Try Googling Flying Clubs in Jo'burg/Gauteng/Pretoria, should be able to find a PA32. Could also try CFA or FTS at Grand Central they have large fleets.

If you really want 6 seats you may find a Cessna 210 easier to find, and expect it to be turbochaged.

The South African CAA is down the road from Grand Central, no more than 10 minutes.

Have fun, and lock the car doors!

These guys have one:

African Flying Safari (http://www.selfflysafari.com/)

plus some other Cessnas worth considering. Dar is indeed a long way to go for a pickup....
