One certainly could agree that the drop-off towards the airport can improve drastically. It’s dirty, boring, you can find homeless people, at the door you will smokers in your way and you need an oxygen system to survive the busses that are idling during pause.

It's how the market works: these days companies don't have to choose much, it's a different story then 25 years ago. It''s a real crisis at this moment.

A destination we don’t talk too much on this forum is perhaps Helsinki. What could be the reason SN is not flying to this European capital city?

OO-SFF stuck in Bujumbura, and it'll take time to repair... :( What is the problem ? Just guessing: SN465's (SFG) diversion to BJM today might (!?) indicate it's bringing a piece of equipment; maybe a replacement engine following a bird strike. Wrong guess: OO-SFF in fact faces a hydraulics issue, ...

I give you one feedback that illustrates SN’s professionalism level: many cases of severe malaria are now reported amongst the crew. You know the crew are overnighting in “tents” in a National Park lodge close to Ndjili. The Tropical Disease Institute considers that this is a “unconscious risk” und...
