My flying career 1

During my lifelong career as Airline Transport Pilot, I was blessed with many opportunities to see the world and meet it's people. Flying mostly cargo with Hercules and Boeing aircraft over a period of thirty years for SAFAIR was not only hard work, but fun and rewarding.

A few pictures taken during various flights

Jakarta capital of Indonesia where the rich and the poor live side by side


Emperor Penguins photographed during one of my many flights to Antarctica


Stonehenge, probably the most intriguing place in the United Kingdom


New Zealand near Christchurch on the South Island


The busy nightlife in Singapore along Orchard Road's shopping malls



Picture of an old castle near Dublin in Ireland


Early morning at Kai-Tak Airport in Hong Kong during 1990


Light snow falling during the late afternoon in Copenhagen Danmark


Waiting for passengers to board at Jan Smuts International Airport South Africa


That's all for now folks, maybe some more flying in a future post on my blog. In the meantime back to farming and radio hamming.
