Aviation has always been about defying the odds—overcoming the laws of nature, navigating the complexities of politics, and pushing the boundaries of technology and economy. For much of its history, the world of aviation was an exclusive realm reserved for the military elite, a select few individuals, or the extremely wealthy. But The Children’s Flight, aims to change that narrative. The mission is simple yet profound: to bring the world of aviation closer to children, to show them that the sky is not the limit but just the beginning. To instill in them the belief that they can be whatever they dream of being—that they can, quite literally, "take that paper plane to their destiny." Every year, this event opens the door to the magical world of aviation for countless children, providing them with the experience of flight and the inspiration to pursue their dreams. It’s our hope that, through this event, even if just one child is motivated to chase their dreams, The Children’s Flight will have played a vital role in shaping their future. Let’s work together to ensure that every child has the opportunity to dream big and reach for the skies. Children's Flight 2024, New Tempe Airfield, 6th September. Contact: [email protected]

ELDERS FLIGHT 2024: A SOARING SUCCESSThe 2024 Elders Flight event, held at the South African Air Force (SAAF) Mobile Deployment Wing in Centurion, was a truly historic and record-breaking occasion. Organised by Felix Gosher, this remarkable event showcased the warm heart of the South African aviation community. With nearly 500 elders and military veterans taking to the skies in over 100 different aircraft, this year’s event was particularly noteworthy as it marked the first time the flight took place at a military facility due to new air traffic control regulations at smaller airfields.The event's success was amplified by the collaboration with the South African Air Force, utilising the former Air Force Base Swartkop, now known as the SAAF Mobile Deployment Wing. In his opening speech, Lieutenant General Wiseman Mbambo, Chief of the South African Air Force, emphasised the importance of honouring the elders as custodians of history. He praised the volunteer aircrews for their willingness to 'pay it forward' and provide many elders with their first flight experience.Held in conjunction with the SAAF Museum’s monthly flying day, the event highlighted the deep appreciation for our elders. Mbambo expressed gratitude to the organisers and revealed exciting plans to expand the Elders Flight to SAAF Museum branches in Gqeberha (Port Elizabeth) and Cape Town.This event would not have been possible without the incredible sponsors who supported it. A heartfelt thank you to all the sponsors who made this day unforgettable. Special thanks go to Gavin Kiggen from ExecuJet, whose significant contributions helped make the Elders Flight 2024 a soaring success.The beautiful moments of the day were captured by Kobus Zietsman and Dirk Vent Smit, whose incredible footage will keep the memories of this special day alive for years to come.Thank you to everyone who made the Elders Flight 2024 an extraordinary event, giving our cherished elders the wings to soar.
