Sorry, I don't see any mystery here. It's just the way things are done in Africa. People used to norms of doing business in the states or Europe have no idea what goes on in Africa.

True, but Aerospace Sales & Leasing is in Florida, not Africa.

I've done biz in Indonesia, I know how things are done there (and elsewhere in Asia), which is why I find the UTA's ICAO country registration "Indonesia" to be interesting.

Look up GIH - UTA's official ICAO designator - here.

Maybe it's just an error?
