The previous blogs activities were interrupted one day as Mercy Air got a
call to help someone in Mozambique. It wasn't a medevac as such but
they had to return to South Africa for urgent medical treatment and we
had less than 24 hours to arrange the permits and clearances.
Fortunately at this time of year the weather is pretty stable and so the
actual flight was fairly straightforward although we did need to
return from Johannesburg in the dark.
The flight was actually for a Dutch lady working at an orphanage in
Marromeu. Accompanying here was a co-worker and one of her adopted
children.

The most direct route took us about 50 nm offshore.

A long day with over twice the length of the UK flown but only 5 landings.
