I'm not a pilot but I did almost exactly the same landing in a 2 man plane flying to a game station in Timbavate in S Africa.One difference was a low level fly over to make sure there were no elephants on the small cleared runway / track. Next step landing and the first job thereafter was to tei the plane down because apparently elephants tip things over just for fun. Then as dusk gathered bouncing down the track in a knackered old land rover with an armed ranger. Eyes glinting in the headlights, And you could smell the stink of the hyenas let alone hear them.
