The flight with Eurowings and the entry were completely problem-free. A PCR test, not older than 72 hours, the completed entry form from the Internet and proof of health insurance abroad were all we needed. For the return trip, we only had to fill out the online entry form and show proof of vaccination once.
Full Covid19 vaccination or proof of recovery (2G) is mandatory for our guests this year. Our staff at the lodge will also all be vaccinated twice by the season.
On 06.09. the first two containers will be loaded. 4 more on 11.and 12.September. Then 30 airplanes with the Golden Karoo go on a big trip. Arrival in Walvis Bay on 19.10.
We are looking forward to a hopefully normal gliding season in Bitterwasser.
As a member of the Bitterwasser Board of Directors and CFI of the Soaring Society of Namibia, Dieter has rendered outstanding services to gliding in Namibia.
Sitting at his favorite spot in Bitterwasser, he has left us forever.
We will not forget him.
The season in Bitterwasser is slowly drawing to a close.
One by one, the gliders are being loaded into the containers. And still some teams fly over 1000 kilometers every day.
