Remote Camp Fly in Brainstorm!!
Or brain phart..
On another thread Micro-lite flying was mentioned.. My thoughts were.. Why can't a micro-lite fly a hunter into camp??

I have no intimate knowledge of Ultra-lites. But have seen some pretty impressive sized ones doing work in remote areas..

I might agree with that based on the U.S restrictions on HP/Size ect. But I've seen pics of Ultra-lites in Africa with 3 people on board (incl. pilot)

Safari companies would never get insurance cover for a micro light to do that kind of work...........

This is an assumption, but weight, speed and range are not sufficient.
