Flying in Africa is challenging, fun and rewarding.
The African Self-fly Safari is an opportunity for you to fly an aircraft in Southern Africa, for pilots seeking adventure. We make it possible for you to see Africa's wilderness and animal kingdom and to fly yourself around the route. You will have an aircraft, an assistant copilot and navigator (if you need it ?), a tailor-made route, full-flight planning services, someone to help you on way, assistance on departure day in dispatching, flight monitoring, and full support while you are on safari. You do the flying !
Buffalo, lion, and elephant wander under your wings. Dirt airstrips link far-flung towns and camps across the African bush. A day's flight, and a dusty drive through herds of antelope, culminates with a sundowner, an excellent dinner, and a cordial evening around a campfire with friends and other travelers from around the world. As conversation fades the night sounds of the bush come to the fore. Enjoy restful sleep in the wilds of Africa. A predawn wake-up call, an early start, and the adventure begins anew!
The region we are talking about includes South Africa, Botswana, Zimbabwe, Namibia, Zambia, Malawi and Mozambique. The region is politically stable and safe for visitors and tourists. Our safari itineraries tend to keep you out of the cities and in Africa's dramatic wilderness, scenic rural areas, and coasts. Throughout the region you will find gracious hosts, friendly people, and an enthusiastic flying community. English is the official language throughout the region (except in Mozambique where Portuguese is spoken). ATC communications are always carried out in English.
