The story isn't relevant but the photo used in this news article is curious. Why was a Cameroon Army officer on board a SAAF C130 at FAWK on 19 October?

Mistral, are you a magnet for SAAF planes, do you have military-grade catnip, or what?

Great photos. \:D/

I've been lucky in the two areas I've spent lockdown. My house in Pta is just southwest of FAWK. :D
