Mozambique trip - Bilene

Postby Air Hog » Fri Jan 05, 2018 8:56 am

Kroon Fix Wingers are busy arranging a trip to Mozambique with Bilene as our base. We are between 8 and 10 Fix wingers from Kroon and some others that still have to confirm.

Distance from Kroon via Kruger (to exit clear), then Maputo to enter clear and then Bilene is plus/minus 360 miles. Bilene has a 600m Tar surface runway 01/19

We plan to leave Saturday the 21st of April 2018 and return the 29th of April. One week of fun flying up and down the Mozambique coast.

Gavin Neil is resident at Bilene and he is arranging all accommodation and Paperwork in Mozambique. His previous Fly In was very successful and he is a very keen aviator that wants to promote general aviation in Mozambique. If we get a big enough squad to fly down, he is going to try and arrange special Group prices at Maputo and also on accommodation. Gavin also arrange fuel and security at Bilene Airfield.

The period we have selected is the best weather this time of the year in Mozambique and MANY hours are going to be flown.

We plan to have a kickoff meeting on the 20th of January at the Kroon Clubhouse at 09:00.

If anyone is interested to join us, please confirm by mailing me your details at johan dot Welman at vodamail do co dot za or WhatsApp at o71-6o9-o647. We have a Bilene WA group, let me know if you want to be added to be updated on what is happening.
