(Sightseeing Trip)
We departed Nairobi Kenya (HKJK) and flew directly west to search for the Great Rift, observed in the previous Mission.
After about a 30 minute flight, we were unable to locate the Rift.
We then turned southeast and flew to Mt Kilamanjaro (HTJK). We refueled, departed Mt Kilamanjaro airport, toured the Mountain and then flew directly west, in another attempt to locate the Great Rift. We flew for another 35 minutes and were forced to divert to another airport, near a huge lake, Mwanza, Tanzania (HTMW) before we ran out of gas.
Real world weather was loaded and we experienced dark clouds, turbulence and lightning.
