Good job getting it in on 27. They will have more fun getting her out then I ever did while flying in and out of there!

Why didn't they go to Dar or Zanzibar? Hell even Nairobi would have been better. Arusha is not a place for a 67...

"A listener on frequency reported the aircraft was sent into a holding at Kilimanjaro NDB (KB, 293kHz) southwest of Kilimanjaro Airport and south of Arusha Airport. Arusha's runway was visible from the holding with the same orientation as Kilimanjaro's runway (09/27 at 3600 meters length). The crew thus obviously believing to land at Kilimanjaro Airport touched down at Arusha."
