HBA Hewa Bora Airways

Post by p1lot »

Hi Guys,

Does anybody know the current fleet and/or markings/registration cities of (HBA) Hewa Bora Airways? I had a look on their site [ http://www.hba.cd/ ] but was wondering if anyone had any updated/recent knowledge of their whereabouts?

Thanks for your help!

HBA - (Again!) - Cargo

Post by p1lot »

Does anyone know or know where I can get more information on the cargo routes and planes for HBA (Hewa Bora Airways)?? I have been trying to find some through their site, but there's not really anything there!

I know there's a route from Kinshasa to Brussels... but that's about it!

All help and info much appreciated people!

Thanks again!

:)
