The SA Air Force’s (SAAF’s) Western Cape-based 22 Squadron, with pair of Oryx medium-transport rotorcraft, contributed in no small measure, alongside other disaster management elements, to bringing raging fires in the Table Mountain National Park (TMNP) and adjacent areas under control in spite of bad weather conditions.
Working on Fire (WOF) helicopters were first to be dispatched to combat the fire that started on the mountain on 18 April and was spread by strong winds. These aircraft were forced to land by prevailing strong winds and low cloud which severely limited visibility.
