[FVCP] "Customs and Immigration" by TOY

Comment by @TOY on Charles Prince Airport, Zimbabwe:

Customs are sporadic but there was no immigration! I only had a voice on the other end of the telephone who told me to leave my details on a piece of paper and shove it under the door!! It made me most uncomfortable not having my passport stamped although she was adamant that aircrew did not need to have their passports stamped!! Fuel is available pay cash and in USD.
