CogitoErgoSum Posted November 22, 2017 Share We(SAA) still own 2 harvards(lol 2 of the 3 aircraft SAA actually owns, the other being a JU-52 junkers). The 2 we got are ZS-WLP and ZS-WLR are in supreme servicable condition. Just a pity politics doesn't allow them to fly very often.Do you know where the Harvards are kept? There are two that train regularly overhead at my plot. I am northwest of Pta. It is a sight to be seen when they are doing their moves.

Wannabe Posted November 23, 2017 Share As a kid staying on the East Rand, we regularly had the full squadron of Harvards flying overhead during their training runs.They were stationed at Dunotter at that stage. I then still had dreams and aspirations of becoming a pilot, and every time I heard that distinctive sound approach, I dropped everything just to run out and look at them. Did you guys know that some of the Harvards that was sold off, was used in the making of the film, Pearl Harbour?

Bateleur1 Posted November 23, 2017 Share Wonder if the SAAF today combine all the aircaft that are serviceable and have crew and send them into the air now. Do not think there will be more flying than in this single formation. barrykm and Lurch the stalker 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Do not think there will be more flying than in this single formation.Was thinking the same thing. Formations of this size isn't something we are likely to see anymore.

Not in aircraft in anyway, maybe huge formations of honorary Colonels might seen more in future. Tromp 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
