The first ever Air Show was held in Phalaborwa on Sat. 29/10/2016.
Unfortunately I was busy organising a Road Race so could only observe at a distance.

Sorry, no photos, but I'll try to "steal" some.

For those who are interested, the planes I saw were:

5 Harvards which did formation flying & a few barrel rolls, etc.
What a wonderful sound - memories of my youth!

4 Pitt's specials which did the usual formation aerobatic stuff.

1 yellow Stearman Kaydet. This was the class act!

An un-identified high performance aerobatic monoplane which did some very hair raising stuff.

An Air Force Oryx Troop Helicopter.

A fly past by 3 Grippen fighters from the Hoedspruit airbase.

All the above were visitors. They had all left by 14:00.

Some local small planes also flew around including a twin engined Ventura.
