Thanks to the generous birthday gift from the Expedition Base Team, I have just enjoyed a flight in a lovely Tiger Moth, piloted by SES Member Annabelle Burroughs who regularly flies these historic bi-planes form Henstridge airfield.

 

I was allowed to fly this legendary aircraft for a few minutes. It is a marvellous experience which I strongly recommended.

 

JBS has recently returned from an expedition to Colombia.  Read his report  here.

 

The expedition to Kenya in 2018 is now full.

 

JBS is planning an expedition to the west of Mongolia from 7-26 July 2018.  Please click here for more details.

 

During the global circumnavigation, Operation Drake 1977 – 80, teams of young explorers operated in Papa New Guinea. JBS took them to see the extraordinary dance of the Duk Duk men and the procedure for capturing live sharks with a noose dangled from a canoe. This is believed to be the first time this was filmed.
