Long Wheel Base Posted January 20, 2020 Posted January 20, 2020 Think best African airline is Ethiopian airlines They use to be the best but ethiopian-airlines and kenya have surpassed them, since they dropped their standardsWell their fleet is pretty impressive. They also have interest in technical. They have plenty money it seems.

Kranswurm Posted January 20, 2020 Posted January 20, 2020 Peeled as in "rooinek" sunburn kind of peeling....worst affected was my waist area that were exposed to the wet clothing (pants waist and underpants elastic band) for about 1 hour... I had to drive home to go and get a change of clothingThe worst about Avgas is that it seems to sit in your lungs and stink for days.

Nyet... its ZS-SRU a Beech 390 Premier 1 JetOut of interest sakes Its built with a composite fuselage, quite revolutionary for this type of aircraft that has been in manufacture since the last 1990's.Has Williams Rolls FJ44 turbo fan engines, similar to the engines used on some older type cruise missiles Registered to Katzbro Premier Aviation (Pty) Ltd, apparently owned by a Zunaid Moti ex owner Future Fin now "Moti Group" Think he might a some other bigger jets In other words he is rolling in $$$$ Spoke101, DJR and Long Wheel Base 3
SwissVan Posted January 21, 2020 Posted January 21, 2020 (edited) Honda jet is very similar in size but has one BIG difference... The engines are attached with an over the wing mount set up and not attached to the fuselage. And off course they have Honda GE HF120 engines Edited January 21, 2020 by SwissVan Long Wheel Base and DJR 2
