Wink"Central and West Africa are the group’s primary concern, and the first venture will be located in one of the six central nations—Cameroon, Central African Republic, Chad, the Democratic Republic of Congo, Equatorial Guinea and Gabon—because the region has a more advanced aviation sector, says SAA CEO Siza Mzimela."
This has to be a misprint. There is no advanced aviation sector in any of these countries, quite the opposite. It is also the black hole of air traffic control.

jetdrvrET and the old SAA are the only two African carriers I would ever get aboard.
Did Kenya Airways once and the hydraulic fluid leaking from a flap servo scared me to death. Kept wondering about what I couldn't see.
