WE SEE A TOTAL OF nine Type certified aircraft (seven fixed wing and two helicopters) having been registered. The Cessna 172 takes up a registration that has been used five times over the years, the most recent being a Beechcraft 200 King Air which went to Kenya in 2008.
Two Cessna 206s have come onto the register from Botswana. The Lear 45 comes from Namibia. There is also a Dassault Falcon 2000 that has arrived from the USA as well as an Embraer 145 from France.
We have another Robinson R66 registered, and this one takes up the registration previously used by another Robinson 66 which went back to the USA in April 2022. The Airbus A350B3 is a new helicopter, straight off the production line.
The NTCA side of things keeps on growing with another ten aircraft having been registered. However of these ten, five are the very popular Bat Hawk aircraft.
