An uncensored track of ZS-FCW

[ddevos]

Great, ZS-ZWH is now showing up correctly, right now heading from Cape Town to PE, I suppose TGRK was in a position to fix it. I wonder whether the C310 was maybe moved to Germany, since that is where the owner lives?

Just curious, when was the last time a passenger 767 operated regularly to SA?

[Starship]

This One Air Boeing 747-428ERF flew from Nottingham in the UK to Upington last night and now it's headed for Adelaide, Australia. I thought this to be a somewhat unusual routing.

Sorry, I am not well versed in Jet speak, I thought it was a Mustang 2.

However. It is no longer based at Wonderboom, the owner moved to Stellenbosch a few years ago and it is now based at Signature CT.

His PC12 and EC130 helicopter are still based at Wonderboom, perhaps his C206 still too.

Hi Whirly, the Mustang is the Cessna model 510, while the M2 is part of the Cessna 525 model family comprising the 525 Citation M2, 525 CitationJet, 525 CJ1+, 525A CJ2+, 525B CJ3+ and 525C CJ4+. I researched all the various Citation models only nine days ago...

I consider myself schooled. No exams in a week though.
