    Brilliant trip report. My excitement grew when I saw the interior of the plane, the pilots sitting right in front of the passengers! Excellent! What a great way to start an adventurous journey. The views of the incomparable Kilimanjaro just makes it absolutely perfect.
    I'm so jealous:)

    Air Choice One flies the Grand Caravan out of STL. Try flying on one to Decatur or Jonesboro. Nairobi-Wilson looks like a close-in airport, like Chicago Midway or Washington-Reagan National.

    Gear is visible during the full flight, because it's normally a short-range jet, but it is a passengers' version of this jet (which in this plane there are more seating places, it's cost was dedicated to Wild Life Direct, during the "Hands off our elephants!" action).
