Operational context
Chartering privately between Kotoka International (DGAA) and Nelson Mandela International (GVNP) removes connections entirely: 2,751 km non-stop in 3h30. The constraint here is rarely range but slot and parking availability at Nelson Mandela International (2100 m runway). At this range a Falcon 2000LXS avoids a tech stop and preserves cabin comfort.
