For this tour we circumnavigate continental Africa, beginning and ending at Jim's winter sojourn.

Although we visit in a number of capital city airports, some of the provincials are quite small, hence his tour is best suited to regional/business jets or turbo prop airliners (looking at you Dash 8, Jetstream & Saab 340A lovers!). Boeing and Airbus tubeliners have been included in the aircraft list but are not really recommended.

NOTE ICAO changes:

1.Khartoum HSSS has recently changed to HSSK. It exists as HSSK in XP 11 but your chosen simulator may show either (it is still HSSS in FSX). However, as the OAV database still has this listed under HSSS, this has to be used for the flightplan and kACARS. (They are building a new airport RW so it looks like it may change again to HSSN)

2.Lusaka FLKK was originally FLLS. Your sim may list this as either (in XP it is FLKK). However, tThe OAV database still has this listed under FLLS, this has to be used for the flightplan and kACARS
