I heard that the operation is in Zambia. To be based out of a small private strip in the north. One AN2 has arrived the other is on the ferry flight.

Does anyone have any info on the company or work they will be doing.

Thanks guys

There are private operators based in Namibia. One his farm called "Naua Naua" and if I'm not mistaken another one on his farm called "Tigerpforte"

Reply is a bit late judging by the previous dates but anyway.. AN2 with a Hungarian Reg. and lekker colour scheme was parked at Ndola for short while beginning April. A lady pilot, who ferried it all the way from Hungary, paxed with us to Joburg somewhere middle April. Chatted to her while walking through customs and according to her it has gone to Mozambique. Where in Moz? Dunno unfortunately

Saw an An2 parked on the side apron in Maun, looked like it had a 5N- reg, not sure if that's correct. Looked like it had been parked for a while.

I saw one in Mbuji Mayi DRC. She was a yellow beast I believe doing general freight within the country. Flown by a rugged lookin Russian. 9Q-CFR....
