Part 4 of our South African dream: Virginia Airport Durban FAVG to Bethlehem Airport FABM
This is the forth video in a series of 9 videos about our flying adventure in South Africa. We rented a Sling 2 at the Johannesburg Flying Academy (JFA) at Panorama airfield and flew around South Africa in 12 days. It was an unforgettable experience.
This video will start were number 3 ended: Virginia Airport Durban. Due to bad weather over Durban we got stuck there for 2 days. We found a "gap" of 2 hours to escape the bad weather. We took off at Virginia Airport Durban, located under the TMA of King Shaka Durban International Airport. ATC voice recording has been added to this video. Due to low cloud ceiling we had to contact King Shaka to fly through their TMA. Then we had a long climb to 11.500ft to cross the great escarpment. Because of a lot of head winds and density altitude the climb out took much longer than planned.
We stayed at the Cheetau Lodge in Bethlehem.
Flight time: 3h 18min
