Overberg Fly In 9-11 November 2007
The South African Air Force hosted a fly in at FAOB this weekend.
All in all it was a well presented show, ticket sales could have been faster at the gate - there was only one entry and exit point.
A live air-to-air fire display was executed by a Cheetah D firing an air to air missile at a parachute flare.
Numerous general aviation aircraft where also on static display, these included the Twin Diamond Katana, Seneca V, Turbo B36 Bonanza, PC12, a TMB700 and PAC750XL.
The Air Force had 2 Cheetah C's a BAE Hawk, A Hercules and a A109 Power on static display, as well as a BK117, a Casa, two Oryx and two Altas Rooivalk attack helicopters at the show.
Thunder City / Classic jets had their English Electric Lightnings Buccaneer and Hunters entertaining the crowd with impressive aerial displays.
Weather turned out to be a bit lousy at first, but cleared up later in the afternoon.
