Namibia is a fantastic country to visit. For wildlife, you might prefer Botswana, but for sheer variety of landscape and a sense of wilderness, Namibia is unbeatable.
What a great day Gabe had to showcaae Namibia and it's amazing scenery, and it was so good to have the close up of the cockpit and chatting to the aircrew. Well done Gabe (you lucky guy!)
Wonderful to see a country from the air, I think you learn so much more about it and Namibia looks to be a very striking country and must be a great place for bush flying. Thanks for sharing.
So much to talk about after watching this video. Once again Gabriel shows great stamina after a long hot day being bounced around in the incredible versatile, 208 caravan. The country is a scenic feast for the eyes, especially if you're a geologist. I have flown high wing Cessnas, but never a caravan with the wonderful PT6A Pratt and Whitney in the nose. Looking forward to more, FR24 & Gabe comes through again! Thanks -Jim
Super nice video! Love the hands-on flying, the increedible landscapes and also the segment where both pilots tell a little bit about themselves and the flying they do. Cool people, amazing country, never been to Namibia, but I'd love to see it one day!
When I was 17 I flew to Namibia by myself, and I remember the ascent out of cape town was turbulent, but 20 mins later with the karoo it was stunning. I have to say I prefer bumpy takeoff as well. I did elephant conservation work there for 2 weeks as part of my duke of Edinburgh award and i loved every minute of it. Thanks for the awesome throwback down memory lane.
Thanks, Gabe. A great video as usual. Took 2 weeks passing through Namibia a few years back. A beautiful, diverse country. Fantastic to see familiar places from the air. It was interesting to hear the pilots' points of view about the varied flying conditions there, too. Loved the outro! Haha!
All the flight sim nerds are happy that you put the ICAO codes for the airports. We would have found them regardless, but nice cherry on top! Great video too!
Follow many aviation channels as a student pilot myself And after 2 videos of this channel already my favourite and best channel iv watched !! Love the content mate From Australia 🇦🇺
I spent 2 weeks driving that route about 20 years ago. I was lucky enough to spend a morning on the ramp at Eros with Chris Schutte who owned the immaculate Air Namibia DC6! Great video of a great Country!!
Listen to that PT6A starting up. Oooo, old school cockpit setup with the Garmin 750. NICE!!!! Oh and the views ot Namibia are pretty darned spectacular..
What a contrast from last week! The more controlled environment of the A220 to the more ‘hands on’ approach to the Cessna Caravan. Coupled with the terrific footage of the landscape of Namibia!
Well, that was fun. I will pass on a longer stay there but enjoy yourself. Bumps not problem in either case. You get all of that fun in piston engine flying. 10 thousand feet over Ohio in a DC 3 in the summertime you do get a few bumps. Modern flyers have no clue and miss some of the fun flying piston.
Thank you so much Gabe for sharing and taking us along this phenomenal experience 🎉 I love the African series over the last few months, can't wait for more videos ❤ The crew was top notch and very friendly and shows our spirit as South Africans 😊
I was the captain on the flight, I hold a Commercial Pilots License, so I wear 3 bars to represent that, typically 4 bars are worn when you get a Airline transport Pilots License however some companies like the captain to wear 4 bars to show they are the senior on the flight
Was an absolute privilege to show you the beautiful Namibia and fly you around for the day. Hope to see you in Namibia again soon!
Thank you so much!

Thank you!
I so miss Namibia 😢
Wow so proud of Kayla as a female captain!! 🎉😮
🥳😎
Lady pilots are absolutely unremarkable in bush flying.
It's completely normal to be flown around by a girl just a couple of years out of high school.
Always awesome to watch planes featured from an operator I work for❤✈
👍👍

😊
Yessssddd!!! More videos like thisss
This could be super cool to watch with apple vision or similar glasses
Ooh nice idea!

Yes we love variety! 😄
That outro 🤣🤣🤣🤣 Love it 👊🏽🙏🏽
Sometimes you just nail it 😁
I thought that the Pilbara is dry and desolate; this is a whole other story. Good job!
Thanx for sharing, I enjoyed all the scenery...!!
Glad you enjoyed it
Epic outro!
😂
My home country 🎉

You couldnt see Ongava lodge!😢 i've been there like 15years ago❤

What an amazing feeling seeing the planes I work on, on UA-cam. AIRCRAFT MAINTENANCE ENGINEER HERE.
Why does the captains wears 3 strips iso 4?
I was the captain on the flight, I hold a Commercial Pilots License, so I wear 3 bars to represent that, typically 4 bars are worn when you get a Airline transport Pilots License however some companies like the captain to wear 4 bars to show they are the senior on the flight
@ thanks! First time I saw this. At my airline the Captain holds 4 and the FO 3 stripes.
Have a nice day
When will you return to Venezuela?
