It seems Mr Cluver has established a reputation for himself. 
So far I have heard of no critcism of his business plans, in so far as whether the proposed operation has the ability to generate profits.
It seems there is more than enough demand due to the number of disgruntled punters left stranded last year.
Is the 747 classic the way to go on this route? As we all know we would have thought that oil at $40/barrel was high; now what we'd all give to have it there again.

Civair needs suppor not criticism
This oke is a clown and does not warrant any support.
The fact remains, the banks wont lend him a penny, bearing in mind that the Rossair saga has left a few banks ,millions out of pocket.

Whats the latest with Civair?
Just wondering if anyone knows what the latest is on the Civair front...it's been a bit quiet.
Had a look on the civair website and just says "Coming Soon!"
Is A.C. still planning and trying to get the 747 and the London route?
Not that I would ever book a ticket with them, just purely out of curiosity.

ZS-MUM???
The white and red C90??
They will have a good take-off and landing, no problems there!
But.........they will have to get some $$$$ at the next fuel stop as something will go wrong??
It will take them a year to get to London! But what a jol that would be for the crew??
Getting to know Africa better!

ZS-MUM is an old B90 which is ITT limited on takeoff at sea level! Why even give clueless the time and space on this forum. Nothing more needs to be said about him!! I just hope that Audrey de Angelo does some investigative journalism this time before punting his "airline" in the newspaper!

I heard the latest and the greatest is that A.C walked into the maintenance manager,s office sometime last week and threatend with legal action if ZS-MUM does not get worked on , only to be told to get out of the office and take the a/c somewhere else to be fixed.

I also heard they were planning to operate again this year'
The only problem was how to organise customs and immigration so they can use the Jetranger and depart and arrive at the waterfront to avoid the chaose at FACT at immigration.
There was also a problem about getting fuel at Saldanha I hears
