The FlySafair issue is caused by other local airlines as an excuse to force fares to be increased. They cannot handle the competition, so they try dirty games. The margins in running an airline are closer to loss rather than profit. FlySafair remains our national carrier
I was a JHB radar controller and now retired airline pilot. From a pure workload perspective I can assure you that driving that radar screen is much more demanding than flying. It is like a full on sim session every day you go to work.
Thanks for the feedback. Interesting luminous object over the Red Sea. I saw it myself a few weeks ago near the Red Sea on a flight back from Marisa Alam into Europe. Was a really strange and unexplainable phenomenon. We took photos. Back at base, our colleagues thought we lost the plot.
Hey guys, great podcast. Here is some quick info on the Cape Town runway. From my understanding, they wanted to remove the old Air Force base at Cape Town and use that land for a parallel runway....... It was in the works years ago. Second Airport.... Its Fisantekraal Airport (old Air Force runway) is north of Durbanville. Been discussed for years, but also some dubious players have been involved in that one for years....
@@ryanparrock thanks mate, its called research :) btw maybe you should let Bryan send me your details, already sent him some additional info, but I think he is in the abyss
Flysafair will never be shut down we all had this airline for a long time and now and I will be a flight attendint for flysafair and I'm gonna work hard and fly in that plane anywhere. Cause flysafair is now our helper for our boks and taking us everywhere around sa it's now time to support safair and help them our country depends on that airline ❤😢
Western society appears to be embracing a reset on common sense and authenticity thanks in no small part to alternative media, in particular, podcasting. Safair: The ownership regulations have to be complied with by all players to ensure a level playing field. If they are found to be non-compliant I hope they correct the matter ASAP as their product and presence in SA is vital. The whole foreign ownership cap is a debate on it's own.
Gents. FlySafair. Your comment about this being ‘dirty tactics’ from other airlines is quite an indictment on these ‘other airlines’. I find this comment quite bizarre and disappointing.

Thanks Al. Yes, they are a pivotal player in our SA market. Appreciate your support 😊
Im sure that skyjet africa or skylink or Vamos or whatever its called today will pick up some of Fly Safairs market share. 😂
🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
Cape Winelands = Fisantekraal

You’re right Brad. The word dirty is too strong and not accurate.
