Short flight in pictures over the Selous reserve, Tanzania

Amongst many things, what makes a bush pilot happy?

a lovely location in Tanzania, like the Selous, no passengers, a quick hop to justify low level flying, a newly acquired Go Pro Hero 6 attached on the tail and tally ho!…

Here taking off from Mtemere towards Siwandu a few minutes away.

 

Some giraffes were hanging around the airstrip. Dangerous hazard along an airstrip! Chasing them was a courtesy for the next pilot about to land.

Notice the little logo “No weapons on board”. In South Sudan they would have died laughing.

 

 

Following the Rufiji river and its gorgeous sand rivers.

 

 

 

 

 

 

A little low pass to inspect the airstrip. Checking for animals or any hole…

 

A quick tear drop turn and here is the landing, a 5 minute flight.

 

Happy pilot!
