With the 3rd weekly service, it’ll be operate the shortest Boeing 767 route in the world, as Brazzaville – Kinshasa route block time is 20 minutes, and the airborne time will be around 7-10 minutes, similar to AIRFRANCE operated with its A330-200 between Dec 08 and Mar 09. Normally Hewa Bora operates Boeing 727 on this sector.

EDIT
Ethiopian Airlines in fact also operate this route as Addis Ababa – Brazzaville – Kinshasa – Addis Ababa with a mix of 757/767, but doesn’t have local traffic
