Locally the weather and visibility is good and, on the ground, work to turn the aircraft around begins quickly. The cargo is unloaded and aircraft reloaded with about 7 tons of general cargo for the trip back to Bahrain. At take-off the aircraft's weight is only 105 tons, the maximum allowable take-off weight is 165.9 tons. The crew taxi the A300 out to runway 15L for take-off. Because of the light weight and the need for a maximum-angle climb from lift-off to gain as much height as possible before reaching the airfield boundary, the selected configuration is "slats only" - no flap - and full power. Climb is to be straight ahead to waypoint LOVEK. The crew consisted of 38 year old Belgian Captain Eric Gennotte with 3300 hrs flying experience, 29 year old Belgian First Officer Steeve Michielsen with 1275 flight hours and 54 year old scot Flight Engineer Rofail with 13423 hours flight experience.

  • The Last Flight out of Uli

This is likely the actual aircraft that made the very last flight out of Uli. Picture from Jack Malloch’s private collection. © Greg Malloch. THE LAST FLIGHT OUT OF ULI By the beginning of January 1970 in the break-away state of Biafra, Uli or ‘Airstrip Annabel’ as it was officially known, had become the country’s last remaining beacon of desperate hope in the eye of a swirling hurricane of inevitable death and destruction. Since the beginning of 1969 the little widened section of palm-tree lined roadway had become the very epitome of hell itself. The country was completely surrounded by the encroaching Nigerian forces and Uli was the only place where food and ammunition could be flown in and the starving orphans could be flown out. © Alan Brough Page !1 In early December ’69 the veteran war correspondent Al J. Venter flew into Uli. Describing his experience he said, “None of us will ever forget the heat and the noise that cloaked us like a sauna. Time meant nothing. You were simply too awed, too overwhelmed by what was going on, and the musty, unwashed immediacy of it all. Our senses were constantly sharpened by the stutter of automatic fire along the runway. The priests in their white cassocks, the rattle of war, the roar of aircraft, the babble of voices shouting in strange tongues and the infants hollering all made for a surreal assault on the senses.”1 Three days before Christmas the ‘final assault’ was launched and what remained of Biafra was finally sliced in two.

  • A Decade of Civil Aviation in Zimbabwe: Towards a History of Air Zimbabwe Corporation 1980 to 1990
    The African e-Journals Project has digitized full text of articles of eleven social science and humanities journals.

Find more at: http://digital.lib.msu.edu/projects/africanjournals/ Available through a partnership with Scroll down to read the article. Zambezia (1995), XXII (i). A DECADE OF CIVIL AVIATION IN ZIMBABWE: TOWARDS A HISTORY OF AIR ZIMBABWE CORPORATION 1980 TO 1990 A. S. MLAMBO Department of Economic History, University of Zimbabwe Abstract In 1980 when Air Zimbabwe was established, there was great hope that it would prosper, especially since it was going to operate in a global atmosphere without the restrictions of economic sanctions that had constrained its predecessor, Rhodesia Airways. In the first few years, Air Zimbabwe expanded its services, replaced old aircraft with newer and more hiel-efficient state-of- the-art aeroplanes. By the mid-1980s however, the airline had started to lose money and continued to do so for the rest of the decade, necessitating hefty subsidies from the government. This article traces the development of Air Zimbabwe from 1980 to 1990 and attempts to analyze the reasons behind the airline's disappointing performance. It suggests that the failure of the airline to operate as a viable commercial enterprise was a result of both internal weaknesses of the airline's administration and restrictive government policies, as well as a generally difficult global economic climate. INTRODUCTION Air Zimbabwe Corporation (hereafter called AirZim) was established under the Zimbabwe Corporation Act (Chapter 253) of 1980.1 The new airline took over from Rhodesia Airways which had been established in 1967 and which had operated profitably throughout its existence, with the exception of the 1979 financial year when it registered its first deficit.

  • “Honoured More in the Breach Than in the Observance”: Economic Sanctions on Rhodesia1 and International Response, 1965 to 1979
    “HONOURED MORE IN THE BREACH THAN IN THE OBSERVANCE”: ECONOMIC SANCTIONS ON RHODESIA1 AND INTERNATIONAL RESPONSE, 1965 TO 1979 A. S. Mlambo Department of Historical and Heritage Studies University of Pretoria Abstract The United Nations Security Council passed a series of resolutions condemning Rhodesia’s unilateral declaration of independence (UDI) in 1965, culminating in Resolution 253 of 1968 imposing comprehensive mandatory international sanctions on Rhodesia. With a few exceptions, notably South Africa and Portugal, most member states supported the resolution and pledged their commitment to uphold and enforce the measures. Yet, most countries, including those at the forefront of imposing sanctions against Rhodesia, broke sanctions or did little to enforce them. An examination of the records of the Security Council Committee Established in Pursuance of Resolution 253 (1968) Concerning the Question of Southern Rhodesia (the Sanctions Committee) shows that sanctions against Rhodesia were honoured more in the breach than in the observance. Keywords: Sanctions, UDI, United Nations, Security Council, Sanctions busting, Ian Smith, Harold Wilson Introduction On November 11, 1965, the Rhodesia Front Government of Prime Minister Ian Douglas Smith unilaterally declared independence (UDI) from Britain in response to the colonial authority’s reluctance to grant independence to the country under white minority rule. Facing mounting pressure to use force to topple the illegal regime in Rhodesia from the Afro-Asian lobby at the United Nations (UN), Britain opted, to impose economic sanctions on Rhodesia, instead. British Prime Minister Harold Wilson confidently predicted at the time 1 The names Rhodesia and Southern Rhodesia are used interchangeably in this paper. While the UDI leaders referred to the country only as ‘Rhodesia’, the United Nations continued to call it ‘Southern Rhodesia’ throughout the UDI period.

  • Joanna Warson Phd FINAL 2013
    France in Rhodesia: French policy and perceptions throughout the era of decolonisation Joanna Warson This thesis is submitted in partial fulfilment of the requirements for the award of the degree of Doctor of Philosophy of the University of Portsmouth 2013 i Abstract This thesis analyses French policies towards and perceptions of the British colony of Rhodesia, from the immediate aftermath of the Second World War up until the territory’s independence as Zimbabwe in 1980. Its main objective is to challenge notions of exceptionality associated with Franco- African relations, by investigating French engagement with a region outside of its traditional sphere of African influence. The first two chapters explore the development of Franco-Rhodesian relations in the eighteen years following the establishment of a French Consulate in Salisbury in 1947. Chapter One examines the foreign policy mind-set that underpinned French engagement with Rhodesia at this time, whilst Chapter Two addresses how this mind-set operated in practice. The remaining three chapters explore the evolution of France’s presence in this British colony in the fourteen and a half years following the white settlers’ Unilateral Declaration of Independence. Chapter Three sets out the particularities of the post-1965 context, in terms of France’s foreign policy agenda and the situation on the ground in Central Southern Anglophone Africa. Chapter Four analyses how the policies of state and non-state French actors were implemented in Rhodesia after 1965, and Chapter Five assesses the impact of these policies for France’s relations with Africa, Britain and the United States, as well as for the end of European rule in Rhodesia.

  • Squadron Leader Caesar Hull
    SQUADRON LEADER CAESAR B. HULL, DFC A RHODESIAN BORN FIGHTER PILOT WHO FOUGHT AND DIED IN THE BATTLE OF BRITAIN 43 and 263 FIGHTER SQUADRONS “Never in the field of human conflict was so much owed by so many to so few” Winston Churchill Written from a Rhodesian Schoolboy's Perspective by Bill Musgrave Ex No 237 (Rhodesia) Squadron, RAF Middle East Command 1943 to 1945 Originally published in the 2004 Annual Magazine of The Battle of Britain Historical Society Preamble I regret I cannot claim to have known Caesar Hull, due possibly to age difference. At the outbreak of the Second World War I was a boarder aged 15 at Plumtree School in Southern Rhodesia, situated on the border with Bechuanaland (Botswana), and located on the Railway Line linking South Africa with Southern Rhodesia, Central Africa and countries beyond. Caesar Hull was granted a Short Service Commission in the RAF in 1935, and at the outbreak of war was an operational fighter pilot with 43 Squadron based at Tangmere, age 25. I well remember listening to the radio broadcast by Neville Chamberlain on that solemn occasion on Sunday morning 3rd September 1939 proclaiming a declaration of war with Germany. Amongst school children around the world the word 'war' conjured up many different images of what was to follow. At Plumtree School the first realistic sign of war was the arrival one day of a Military Train assembled by the Special Services Battalion (SSB) of the South African Army. This train contained a complete cross section of military hardware, troops and a band.
