Meeting a colleague in the air.
Landing after a large bush fire, the airstrip had been spare.
Fixing a flat wheel nose.
Our special airstrip in the Rift Valley, the picture is straight, not the airstrip.
Rock damages.
Uneven airstrip.

A Beaver ready for spraying locust in Katavi. Notice the elephant far away.
I had suddenly gotten big vibrations in the engine while flying. After landing I noticed the propeller back plate was torn out and twisted. Notice the cone tip which is not aligned.
So bet was to remove a few of these things and see what worked best. I did also removed the back plate, the yellowish disc, and vibrations stopped.
Notice the friction damage on the nose, the black circle. And of course I also remove that rubber ring.
