Dinajpur is a very fertile plain. Paddy, jute and sugarcane are the main crops cultivated here.And it is here where Sing Dinguani has a lot at the Airport. He keeps three goats there for the milk used in his coffee&Tea Shop on the backside of his FBO. Flying in this reagion is considered by IATA as a "Black Cross Region" so they take no members from this area .No world ensurance company works around here so planes and pilots are hard to get.
There is a Shuttle service called in Indu " Wings of the Lucky Elephant" or Bugli Air Service. It takes off early in the morning with almost anything like people, chickens, rope, paint gallons, nails and sometimes caged cobras sent out to some witch doctor from the local snake market. This "airline" is not new. Back in 1947 Duart Mooresby started the business with an old 1939 DC-3 and his son continued it in the sixties with another used C-46 and a twin Anson. Now Duartsīs grandson is flying the route with a Caribou and the same fixed up DC-3 his grandfather almost got killed in many a time. Flying here is a question on having good eyes and a good butt since flying by the seat of your pants is paramount. There are no radio aids only the two way radio from their shack at the airport. Mountains are all over and the airfields served are located in very pretty but awfully dangerous tiny valleys wedged inside the towering rocks of the said mountains.
So why fly here?..The local birds think its nice and there are a lot of worms around the fields.
Bugli Air Service has bought a New Twin Otter and you will be delivering it, teaching the two pilots how to fly it in the mountains and finally, if you donīt end up in the local Red Cross aid station, get a "Real Bush Pilot" certificate which only Bugly Air provides in this planet. It is said, down in South Africa, that if you get this certificate
you can fly like an eagle anywhere in the whole wide planet. Good luck Piloto...
Another Adventure Flight ONLY for real dude bush pilots...tube pilots please keep your distance you could get hurt.
Soooooooon!!!
