oversleeping: breakfast planned for 0730th Someone has closed a door in the house, I woke up, looked at the clock, accurate 0730. like lightning out of bed and breakfast made ready. Scheduled flight time 4:08 was, for the c172er for the c182 and the PA28 little less, with speed.
the departure as planned, downhill, lots of dust left behind, had carried through the following starting. Start as always as short alsmöglich, then crashed with 80 to 100 mph on the piste accelerating, and passed into the climb to 100mph. Then turn left on 018 MH welge direction west. This sounds somehow after the airport or so, it is not.
navigate accurately, fly steurkurs exactly the tactics of bush-flying VOR taking advantage of flying time, stopping just 20 minutes, we were actually in place. Actually a piste, which was pretty much uphill. At 10ft on flight to control the door, we found that a jackal on the runway was, but was looking at the sight of the plane quickly the wide, we believed. So once again risen in the downwind leg and final approach flown, the jackal was already the middle of the piste, a piste that is so thick, that it is not from one to the other end of the runway looks. Reason for the jackal as it turned out, every flight had to reckon with the jackal on the piste, a cadaver was on the runway which he worked. One of the flight had problems with the navigation, but they were quickly recognized, and they were then returned to the place. The others wait ended at the end of the piste [ clip ] and enjoyed the nature. [ clip ]. Wolfgang r. went down the runway to photograph the incoming machine. What he did not know at the time, he was in the middle of a game reserve with lions and other unpleasant creatures running around freely - there's is usually quite rudely to [ clip ].
departure downhill really not a problem, flying from the ground as quickly, as usual, and ... .... But know the attentive reader of this blog already.
After flying low over a reservoir [ clip ] went to elisras, concrete 2200 m, for a bush flying as Christmas, Easter and Pentecost on a day, lots of piste meter - and of course everything again without landegbühren tower, etc., unbelievable, such a runway in the middle of the desert.
After a touch + go, a home game for us flying from Europe to the concrete runway, fly straight for 42 minutes, without any reference point, drip lines, just nothing in between where you can orient themselves. The cards would be available here in europe the druchschnittspiloten sent for the lawyer - how can you fly to that ;-) - tolwe goal, which is a strip in the middle of nowhere, on a rectangular area on which a house is which is exactly in the extension of the runway center line, is a about 10 m high antenna, about 20 meters before the threshold, -? So we flew from the other side. The 42 minutes fly straight, without a known wind are simple - bush-VOR. You put the plane down to the desired heading, in the case 058, looks for a spot in the distance that flies right in the extension, and the flies to, and if the wind is simple, with homing, but to point out you have to. Here again the same game - flying to align 058, a point of looking at the extension 058 on the horizon, and fly. The fuktioniert great, one will hardly believe it, but I was just, well, + / - 300 meters from the center line over the target area, after the time expires. To selection were 3 rectangular area on one of these was the runway, and fly straight ahead after 42 minutes with the bush-VOR. The rest was easy, just watching, wondering what this space in coming. The rest is child's play again at 26 on a low-flying made, that is, in not more than 10 ft to inspect the runway, not on the flight slammed against the aerial in the downwind, and touch + go. Karl, with whom I flew today, when allister home had been satisfied, even though he always think LOAV sinkdgradient-approach, as in Vöslau, too high for him ;-), underestimated and said I would, therefore, too high. Nevertheless, I manage the machine always lie in the beginning, so that sufficient time and space to touch + go stay - vorbeigezischt right at the antenna. 
028 minutes with 15 again we went over the land no one direction Henco. What is yours truly? Just like all these names usually a gravel road next to / on a house in the middle of nowhere, this time on the border with Botswana, right on the border river, which is however not the time to truly blessed with plenty of water. We flew on the space but not directly, but further W, then the W her along the river, watching the little animals. too deep, we are not flown since, in the thousands of trees large birds were staying, we are not scared, nor did fly together with the individual. We also saw elephants. The 
landing on the 29 is a tricky proposition, because right at the threshold or a power line goes across that one as it has very thin wires, could be overlooked. But we were briefed the day before by allister and was referred to the.
As it turned out, this is a briefing by-and-found on the courts at all. There is no approach charts or something (!), Only a thick book, with info and maybe a picture of the square, nothing else, no info about the environment, etc. the cards, as has been reported several times, partly 1:1,000,000 have almost nothing on it, eg Henco is not located ;-( -won we found the place with the briefed info [ clip ]. As you can imagine it hard to believe that in spite of the native pilots fly wrong approach charts ;-) but me in the beginning phases already happened - in poor visibility do not trust village gefunded first time again. 
At the end of the piste, the home of a pilot, open to all sides in wellbechhangar a 210er. Before the landing, which should be mentioned, flew over Karl and I the home of another famous almost on the Roadmap to the chimney to him wegmitzuteilen on this, "hey, we're there, please take your pick-up truck and get us off the piste "what he did. Time to relax .- was announced, we went to his house.
