March 2014 Update from the Flight Deck

FLIGHT HOURS:  26.9 (almost 7 more flight hours than last month)

PASSENGERS FLOWN:  Over 45

MAINTENANCE EVENTS:  50 hour inspection at Bongolo hangar (thanks Colin & Kelly!)

PHOTO OF THE MONTH:

On approach to Libreville, over the estuary (0 degrees 14.31 N / 9 degrees 35.34 E).   
PS. Those aren't venetian blinds sailing towards the front window of the airplane- that's how our 3-bladed propellor, spinning at 2300 RPM, appears when taking photos of it in action.


What might happen if you take ground transport between Libreville and Bongolo Hospital?  A fender bender and over 15 hours of driving instead of a 1.7 hour flight aboard our Cessna 207.  Louis (a visitor) and Anatole (PAACS resident) were in this van accident on their way to Bongolo in March.  Thankfully, no one was injured.
