Cool

I'm curious if the fact that Sun Air was run by something called "black capital" to promote "black tourism" had any bearing on how people were recruited to the airline, and if it was visibly more "black" than other SA airlines in terms of cockpit and pilot crews' ethnical backgrounds.

Was the Sun Air demise somehow related to animosities between "old" and "new" business circles in South Africa ?
