We were the first helicopter into FALE, King Shaka Airport in Durban today on the official first day of operation.
We flew ZS-RNX, a Robinson R44 RavenII in at 07:30 local time and landed at Delta 4 apron.
Amazing to be the first there at a completely new airport. we went through to the main terminal to have coffee. usual nonsense getting back through terminal as a private pilot.
Impressive terminal, but smaller than expected.
Pilot Kevin Graham SA PPL(H), Hylton Spencer SA CPL(H), Jaco Bester SA CPL(H)
