JEL,
I have to agree with the others, your comment was not only STUPID but it was so NARROW-MINDED!

All of us involved in this industry have tried for many years to keep it healthy, stick to the rules and run a smooth operation. The chopper industry in Cape Town is huge, and people like you give it a bad name. Ur statistics also suck as MOST tourist visiting our beautiful city either start or end their trip with a flip around the peninsula. Tourism is of great importance to the Western Cape and throughout the rest of South Africa and believe it or not but the CHOPPERS play a big role in this, and as Cape Town is seen as the Gateway to Africa, we will continue to fly!

From a Tourism perspective WE in the “AVIATION INDUSTRY” should do all possible to promote our cities, and since you are SO dependant on it to make a living, one would hope that you would be a bit more OPEN-MINDED, OPTIMISTIC and a tad bit more INTELLIGENT!!!!!!!!!!!

I know the old saying goes “ignorance is bliss”, but by god, it should be changed to “ignorance is JEL”

BEATEN-UP CHOPPERS? We will be more than happy to arrange a SITE-INSPECTION for you……
