Our working together with Siyandiza and Vulindlela as well as the Royal Air Cadet Organization ensures that we remain in a position to ensure that aviation development and growth receives the fullest attention offering air forces such as the South African Air Force and hopefully in the future the likes of the US Air Force, the Russian Air Force, the Royal Air Force and other world Air Forces the opportunity to contact potential candidates through offering recruitment information. Future plans include our hoping to cover matters from elite sites such as NASA, the ESA (European Space Agency), Zukhovsky Test Centre, Star City (Russian Space Agency), Empire Test School and others such as the US Air Force Test Pilot School at Edwards AFB and the Navy School at Patuxent River, Epner, Denel, Armscor and more. The shop section now also sports a wide variety of ASA and many other aviation products. Garmin, Telex, David Clark, Softcom, Avcomm are just some of the names of the carried products.

Survey
 
Should ETOPS be allowed out of Radar Range?

No, only for aircraft with more powerplants.
It makes no difference, it's ok.
ETOPS is nonsense, it's only to save money.
ETOPS is justified and the risk is ok.
ETOPS is stretching chance, not ok.
