103 years of doing what

Can't be SAF is part of SANDF and that is only 29 years old. Who is BSing who?

darren_olivier With no fly-past because they don’t maintenance their fleet and don’t have A1 for those that are airworthy. Well done MYANC

I find it strange that they celebrate so many years yet when it comes to recognizing or honoring members pre-1994, there is a problem! Same for all the other forces.

✔️

I noticed quite a few Havards were flying around Pretoria in the last few days. Is it the only aircraft we have left.

And what is left of that ?

One of the oldest airforces in the world destroyed by the ANC.. I wonder how many air worthy aircraft managed to take to the air..

Force you say? 🤣🤣 They say if you repeat a lie long enough, people will start to believe it.

Did they invite the zuma wing the gupta force and their carrier plane?

Stop the War. No Nukes in South African Waters. No to Russian Aggression in Ukraine, No to Right-Wing Putin Regime. StopTheWar

More money wasted on shit. Fix the poor living and electricity

OK.. Good for them what have they achieved all those years

Nahh...the airforce disappeared 30 years ago

NO no n o = this is not the same quality air force = the past and the present are light years apart. A new count needs to start when everything started to fall apart when MK was put in charge =- as it is now, it is shocking and disgusting with Denel in total shambles and broke
