Found a bit about the Avro Shackleton AR3, it was re-furbished to flying condition for the SA Air Force Museum, but crash landed in the Sahara desert near the border with Mauritania on 13 July 1994 whilst on a flight to Great Britain to take part in a number of air shows. It suffered a number of engine failures and was forced to land in the dark, without any loss of life to the 19 crew on board. |

It happened regularly ...
... up to 15 times per day ... ... even on well established pistes ... https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=diFVJ4IVmIE |
Why did I read that? My feet are so itchy now....
Thanks all. |
Does anyone know if it is possible to ride the train back to Nouadhibou with a motorcycle on a flat car? Should I just call your fixer?
|
I'm sure it is. It's been done before.
|
It is possible.
You can arrange this easily by yourself when there (it's possible you'll have to wait a day or two for a space on a car), but if you are on a tight schedule or if you prefer a fixer anyway, you can call him (of send a FB message, contacts are given at the end of a blog post) and he'll book for you in advance. |
