Simon and Matt's trip to SA

Below are some photos of Simon and Matt's trip to SA with "Scotty".  Their trip included flying over Tanzania, Malawi, skirting the border of Zimbabwe, Mozambique and then South Africa.  Thanks to all of you who prayed for a smooth trip.  Everything went according to plan including the weather.  Thankful for your prayers.

Simon flew the first leg and then Matt did the second leg


Flying into Lilongwe, Malawi


This is "Scotty" parked at Kamuzu International Airport, Lilongwe, Malawi.  The plane is affectionately called "Scotty" after the Church of Scotland Ladies Guild funded the purchase of the plane.  So fun that we get to have it in Uganda.

This "rock" is in Mozambique
 
 
 
In the distance is Zimbabwe.

The two pilots, Simon and Matt.  I am sure there are some nicknames we could give them.  Maybe David and Goliath :)  This was "Scotty's" final destination.  Once we see her again she will have a new paint job.
