Cape Town’s multi-use venue built for 2010 FIFA World Cup
Airlink has conducted a low-altitude flyby over Cape Town Stadium before a rugby match, with authorities saying it complied with safety limits, while experts warn of risk and potential precedent for future stunts. The event has drawn global attention and sparked debate about aviation safety.
A low, dramatic flyover by two Airlink jets at a Cape Town rugby match is being reviewed by SACAA after safety concerns emerged. Airlink has withdrawn a planned Sept. 1 flyover as the investigation continues. Authorities say the inquiry will determine if safety concerns warrant a broader review.
