Smile Just in case, Libyan 'help' locations sheet

'just in case':

Here is a list of all airfields in Libya - whilst they may not give you a warm welcome, they are sure to have communications, food and water if you find yourself in trouble...

-hm, sorry, it's got a bit stretched there (but you get the idea!).

Hello Sam, hello all,

the files for Algeria are prepared. Now I have it prepared as Google-Earth- and GPX-File for GPS and included it in an ZIP-File. - Also for Libya, please download again.

The Link:www.desert-info.ch :: Thema anzeigen - Flugplätze/Airfields Afrik(c)a

More countries are coming soon.

For Sam only: You must not prepare other lists, I found out where and how to. Please, if possible, could You rename the thread to "Just in case, African 'help' locations sheet"?

Greetings

Ulrich

Membership - help keep us going!

Horizons Unlimited is not a big multi-national company, just two people who love motorcycle travel and have grown what started as a hobby in 1997 into a full time job (usually 8-10 hours per day and 7 days a week) and a labour of love. To keep it going and a roof over our heads, we run events all over the world with the help of volunteers; we sell inspirational and informative DVDs; we have a few selected advertisers; and we make a small amount from memberships.

You don't have to be a Member to come to an HU meeting, access the website, or ask questions on the HUBB. What you get for your membership contribution is our sincere gratitude, good karma and knowing that you're helping to keep the motorcycle travel dream alive. Contributing Members and Gold Members do get additional features on the HUBB. Here's a list of all the Member benefits on the HUBB.
