It could be the desert 400 or 40000 
The photo of Gaddafi is priceless
Great pics @Nuccio.
I planned to fly to Libya some years ago, and gave up at the permit acquisition stage… nowadays I know one would use an overflight agent.
Anyway, closer to home and the rather colder wx, here is from a quick local today, in between masses of rain and wind…
A rainbow formed by a cloud, which would not have any rain in it:
No photoshopping; just a phone app set to underexpose, to handle the bright background.

Collecting performance data for the AFM
Looks like a great airplane. Any performance data you can share (100hp rotax)?
Flight over the Makgadikgadi Salt Pans area in Botswana. The Limpopo river is seen flowing in the picture.
Camping out in the African bush. This is in the Kalahari Desert.
Limpopo Lipadi Game Reserve private airstrip, Botswana.
Flying to Delta Airfield, a bush strip in the Okavango Delta, Botswana.
Parked at Delta Airfield, Okavango Delta.
Under Africa theme, “giving way to Cameroonian Warrior on tow” at Lydd airport today
A nice SF260 in Burkina Faso military livery, G-NNRA which is seen on the racing circuit.
I was desperatly searching for make/model, definitly something new to the “desert colored Yaks” collected in North Weald
Fyi, try searching G-NNRA on Google, from the results it seems you would get full NRA sponsoring with that reg in the US…

What data are you looking for? The former version has the same Rotax, but an other propeller. The new version is faster. The manual is quite accurate and you can find the first (old) version online local copy
All in all it is a nice handling aircraft.
I managed to get this with a DSLR with an 18mm lens. In Lightroom, from RAW, brought up the shadows a bit…
