Medair to Maban

Yesterday's flight to Maban for Medair was a mixture of passengers and freight on the way out but empty on the way back down to Juba.

Some mist/fog up in the north of the country made the arrival into Maban a little bit more interesting than usual, with visibility ranging from mediocre to very poor as we flew the last 40km or so. Fortunately the visibility in the immediate vicinity of Maban was good and we were able to complete the flight as planned.

Another of our flights was bound for Wau in the north west (more than 600km from Maban) and had to divert to another airfield because the visibility in Wau was reportedly down to 200m.
