Elders Flight 2024
Переглядів 2,6 тис.3 місяці тому
On Saturday 6 July the Elders Flight organised by Felix Gosher, an amazing man who has incredible vision, was a cracker with so much variety and emotion. To see more than 100 civilian aircraft parked at the most famous SAAF Museum home base now known as the SAAF Mobile Deployment Wing (Swartkop) was extraordinary and most welcome as the Chief of the South African Air Force commented. I was fort...

Polokwane Airshow 2024
Переглядів 6 тис.3 місяці тому
After spending this past weekend attending the Polokwane airshow, I was impressed with the organisation and welcoming that the members of the media received from the organisers. The reality is that from a continuity perspective all airshow organisers should appreciate that the more favourable the media reports are, the more likely positive reports and excellent pictures that will be published. ...

Maputo Air Show 2024
Переглядів 6 тис.4 місяці тому
African Pilot attended the Maputo airshow and what a fantastic experience this was not only for estimated 15 000 spectators, but also the members of the media present. As always Brian Emmenis and his team were on top form with a great selection of music. The grand finale with the Puma Energy Flying Lions T6 Harvards was simply beautiful and I saw several spectators with tears in their eyes as t...

To Nampo and back 2024
Переглядів 5355 місяців тому
On Friday I flew with MCC Aviation’s Cessna Grand Caravan to NAMPO together with 11 other passengers and two pilots. The outward-bound flight of 45 minutes was a great deal faster than having to drive (estimated four hours) on several seriously damaged roads. On arrival we were all greeted by the Absolute Aviation and Century Avionics who had a large marquee on the edge of the airfield parking ...

Christine and I drove to Tempe on Friday afternoon so that we could attend the annual airshow. On Friday afternoon I had an appointment to photograph the new Pipistrel Panthera based at this airfield and the first example of the type on the African continent. Thanks to the Stanley and his team at Ferriera Aviation the beautiful new plane was really looking amazing as they pushed the aircraft in...

Wonderful Linda, you've given me so many ideas, thank you.
Beautiful RV, congratulations! 🎉
Wonderful -well done very interesting fly safe
I wonder whether this Hawker is for sale..
My mom had a wedding there
Oh, theyre finally getting somewhere with this plane. Im glad.
Well said Genaral.. Bless you and your team as well
Such an awesome and beautiful gesture...
Stoked for where you guys have been and certainly where you’re going! I was lucky enough to watch you guys get this award… on Andrew’s birthday! #slingisland
It will always be Swartkops!
Congratulations guys - well deserved!
Well done 👏
Very interesting
The Sling boys looked like they would have rather been at OshKosh Airventure.
Fantastic! Makes me proud to see this. Had the privelage to work with Rikus many years ago while testing the ORT RTS6400 at Overberg test range. Well done to everyone involved to make this happen.
🇿🇦Awesome what we do at Home ❤
Polokwane! A good place to come from.
when does the show end, how many more days?
Well done to all! Lovely to experience the majestic Shackleton's mighty thunderings again! Such a pity that your otherwise great video is ruined by inane thumping (so-called "music"?).
Shackletons?? Your are not really serious.
Absolutely amazing. Well done. The skills of the pilots is world class. I am absolutely blown away by this show. Bravo
Horrifying music. Absolutely awful. Let's hear the aircraft...please.
Good Show . What happened to Airplanes that used to be Called KUDUs
Africa is rocking it.
So proud ❤
Muito bom
AWESOME 👍👌✨🤩
You gotta love Brian with his energetic comment. His enthusiasm never dies.
I enjoyed the video. Well done
Good Job, great interview
no airshow in this country is a show if Brian Emmenis is not there. See you in Potch next weekend ?
Hello! Excellent! Could you share the project or some internal photos of the throttle?
👏🏼 Great & wonderful work you are doing Mr Mudau. I am glad that you chose helicopter flying, as an aspiring helicopter pilot I get to learn a lot from you and I truly look up to you. Thank you for being the person you are. 🚁 Keep those blades turning!
I'll add that to my bucket list. Hopefully for 2025!
Awesome. Well done everybody
The one and only Brian Emmenis, legend, always puts a smile of content on my face. Great show as well
In SA , we've been deprived of Cheetahs , Mirages , vampires, buccaneers, canberras and many more from the museum but ey... that was a good try
Those were the good days our army was great we usrd too have verse good fighter jets today its a joke
Paying for a burger and getting a bun only!
Gripens?
No fuel 🤣
Same thing over and over
Not a single one flew . Pilots themselves mentioned that there wouldn't be a display other than the static one
According to Wikipedia They've sold 16 in Europe to 5 different militaries. From what I've seen, there isn't much room inside. maybe it can carry two jeeps.
Hércules 17 tons. Millenium 26 tons.
Why would you cross the Atlantic Ocean from Africa and land in Florida when Maine is actually closer to Africa? Why would you not take the shortest route across the Atlantic?
Good idea but is there a landing strip nearby for fly in guests?
calling it ‘the science of thrill’ is just BRILLIANT ‼️ Best show EVER to date…👊🔥 Complimént‼️‼️🥂 🪖
Fascinating. Thank you for sharing this story.
Well done, never heard of this incident. Very informative!
Toe or heel brakes? Where's the trim wheel?
I used to often spend a Saturday at Krugersdorp back in 1980's when Mike Spence had his hanger there.
This is called "Political entertaining" for BRICS partners. Where the useless SA airforce and government knows it doesn't have the money for it. Nearly all our aircraft are mothballed, old and unserviceable due to zero maintenance contracts and competency. Ontop of the annual budget cuts which make SA defence for a laughing stock. Viva...
my uncle was on that plane
Awesome! See you in a couple weeks Menno!
Can't wait!!!
