With James and Pierre currently on their way to Crete from Khartoum, we thought we'd take the time to update everyone on the highlights from this weekend.

Well, it's just another rainy day in Dar, and James and Pierre are bearing the brunt of it.

This is an update, along with some photos, from James and Pierre.

Weather delayed in Dar-es-Salaam

The weather around Dar and along the route to Addis is not playing ball, and James and Pierre have made the correct decision to stay put in Dar until it clears to a satisfactory level in order to proceed.

Below is an update from James and Pierre, along with a collection of photos from their day off yesterday and their weather-induced delay today:

With a 10.5 hour flight over some beautiful terrain, with some gorgeous weather to boot, there is bound to be a photo or two!

So here they are: photographic highlights of the Polokwane to Dar-es-Salaam leg!

Although James and Pierre are exhausted from the trip, they have promised to send us a write-up from the trip as soon as possible. As soon as we have, we will post it here for everyone to see.

Landed in Dar!

Before their 06:33 local departure time out of Polokwane, James and Pierre had to clear Customs and Immigration just like any other passenger or crew member crossing the border.

Here is a couple of snaps of them while waiting to depart on their journey to Dar es Salaam, which will take approximately 10.5 Hours.

Hello Polokwane!

Here they are! Safe and sound in Polokwane!

Well, final preparations are underway here at The Airplane Factory, with both pilots and the aircraft going through the motions.
