Jomo Kenyatta International Airport, Nairobi, Kenya (HKJK) - Murtala Muhammed International Airport, Lagos, Nigeria (DNMM), Kenya Airways, Boeing 787-800 "Dreamliner".
Another flight with the "Dreamliner" in this case to test the ILS. In Version 1.01 there was a problem, now in 1.02 it looks better. Nice Landing, good enough. One other thing I have llearned yesterday. The airport of Nairobi ins´t easy. He lays in 1.600 ft above sea level. The 'temperature was 30 ° Celsius. This is "hot and high." 20. november 1974 the Lufthansa lost a Boeing 747 after takeoff from this airport. Cause, slats not in position. It was the first loss of a Boeing 747-100. May bee, my setting here was also not perfect. The start was difficult. Owner of the original Boeing 787-800 have contacted Boeing, because of the same problems...

Africa... It is nearly forgotten in FSX and P3D... and in reality. About 5% of all flights worldwide are over africa and in the years between 2000 and 2010 50% of all accidents worldwide in aviation also. But... there is something going on. The fleets of many african carriers have now new aircraft and better security standards.
