Flew the C-130 from Nigeria to Zambia. Landing on an unimproved, unlighted field just before nightfall and in a thunderstorm. Knowing there was no way to refuel, I carried a bunch of fuel. Could I really have landed with that much weight on an unimproved field? Stats below:

Actually, they are clandestine operations. Both secret and illegal. 😉

The strange part is that it is the airline with the fastest rising reputation here. Could it be that I enjoy these missions too much?
