SA Airways would celebrate Jacob Zuma's official inauguration as president by performing a flyover above the Union Buildings in Pretoria, the airline said on Friday. "At 12.02pm on the inauguration day, three SAA aircraft will be visible over the official residence of the presidency," it said in a statement.
The aircraft that would be performing the flyover were an Airbus A340-300 and two A340-600s. (BIG favourites of Jacob Zuma, who has said that he is extremely excited to see the airplanes from the underside... "It's a first... I very much look forward to seeing how the people SEE me. I am very much excited!")
They would then return to OR Tambo International Airport. (Where they will pick up the next shipment of drugs to Europe)
While two pilots were required to operate the aircraft, an additional pilot would accompany each aircraft as a safety measure. (Remember kids... "Safety First") (From iAfrica)
