We are ready for pushback in Johannesburg.
This takeoff was rather abrupt, taking some time to make a thorough rotation.
For a while, I thought I had gone off course and was flying over the Indian Ocean; it turns out, I was just over Lake Malawi.
This flight did not seem interesting to me at first. Suddenly, I was thrilled to see the mountains of North Tanzania take over the landscape in a flash; I was stunned, to say the least.
We are on our approach route for Runway 6 at HKJK. The Mountains of Tanzania are still rising behind me, a dazzling background to a stunning flight.
After a rather difficult landing at HKJK, we are on our way to our gate!
