#3 - Bush flying safaris in South Africa with Craig Lang
Craig Lang, the owner of Flying Frontiers, has had a passion for flying for as long as he can remember, and has been involved in various forms of aviation for many years, holding both a Commercial Pilot's License and a Grade B Instructor’s rating. Based in the KwaZulu Natal Midlands, Flying Frontiers is a small company passionate about Bushflying and Classic aircraft. Craig has been one of the very first to import a Zlin Savage Bobber in South-Africa and is the first one who started to offer off-airport bush flying safaris in South-Africa up to Namibia.
In this episode of TSC, we discover Craig´s aviation path, the particularities of real bush/off-airport flying in South-Africa and Namibia as well as what it takes for us, European UL/LSA pilots, to be able to fly PIC on Craig´s beautiful birds.
You can check-out Craig´s website here: http://flyingfrontiers.com/ ... and watch the video I released about my (short) bush flying trip in South Africa in 2018: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6fB9j7GeRGo
