Waterkloof Air Force Base, 30 April 2013: South Africa...

Regardless of the evidence presented at, and the outcome of, the Zondo Commission, on the morning of 30 April 2013, South Africans woke up to the shocking news that our country had been invaded, captured and violated by the wily, slimy Gupta brothers – for proverbial pieces of silver.
A Jet Airways Airbus A330-200 chartered flight carrying about 200 guests from India to attend a wedding of the Guptas’ niece at Sun City, and which apparently included some politicians from Uttar Pradesh state, landed at Waterkloof Air Force Base, a privilege only accorded to heads of state. There was an immediate public outcry about who approved this violation of South African military space, with denials from all possible persons implicated, including senior bureaucrats from foreign and international affairs, government ministers and then president Jacob Zuma.

A SAAF A109 prepares to airlift an injured paraglider near Witteklip.
A South African Air Force (SAAF) A109 Light Utility Helicopter was used to rescue an injured paraglider in the Eastern Cape last week.
On the afternoon of Thursday 4 March, a callout was authorised by the Air Force Command Post for the medical evacuation of an injured paraglider on the mountainous area towards Witteklip Nature Reserve, the SANDF said.
An A109 from 19 Squadron at Air Force Base Hoedspruit, currently stationed at Air Force Station Port Elizabeth (Gqeberha) was tasked for the rescue.
At 17:35 the crew was airborne with three Mountain Club of SA – Eastern Province Section members accompanying it to the crash site. As the terrain was not conducive for vehicles to access the injured member, the extraction option was only feasible by air hoist.
