    Hi Benjamin,

    Flying in Zambia is great, there is bit of admin in terms of clearance though. Generally you have to apply for clearance - you can't just fly. Clearance for our local VFR in our area is granted for a two-week block - this is how it works for us. Also fuel - specifically avgas is only available at major airports. We have found the quality of petrol to be inferior in Zambia and run our Rotax on avgas.

    If you have any other questions please let me know.

    Cheers,
    Dave
