This all too much takes us back to thread that was on here a long time ago, about "www.neverflysaa.com"
In the one article it spoke of how SAA top management attempted to buy the "pale" engineers an early retirement-so they could start the transformation from a technical side.
In 2000, SAA also started offering the overwhelmingly white technical staff retirement packages to withdraw and make way for black technicians. Many whites accepted, particularly after the Australian airline, Qantas, and the Spanish airline, Iberian Air, heard about the offers and set up recruiting offices in Johannesburg. SAA was stripped of many of its most experienced repair and service personnel overnight.

Whether this happened, or fell through...???
maybe someone from the technical side of SAA can tell us, or is this Journo doin a litttle propaganda as prev mentioned?
6String you make a good point with regard to the stereo typing German-Nazi's and White SA-Racist.
