re: noise levels in departures
I quite agree with your comments but unfortunately or what ever this is part of African culture I am told that by talking loudly implies that they are not saying anything behind each others back and if you understand their language therefore you would not be offended thats the best way I can discribe it I could stand to be corrected but this is the way it was explained to me as a Europane Immigrant.
noise levels in departures
Your staff - from the check in staff right through to cleaning and those manning the coffee shops feel quite compelled to shout to one another as loudly as possible with total disregard for the image of the company, the deafening noise levels that they create and the discomfort of the passengers. Unfortunately, as beautiful as the airport design is, the halls are 'hollow' and the noise created by your staff travels. Maybe if you educate them to speak in normal tones that would help.
Potchefstroom airport
University, colleges, Government Departments, people from Potch + neighbour towns and mines can use this airport effectively. You wasted the tax payers money on the Spaniards and don’t use this airport to it’s full potential. Why don’t you develop a kind of a “Lanseria” airport?
Airport location
This is a very nice vew of Cookhouse village... but is there actually an airstrip?

Controllers are very first world with some very skilled ones and the odd mediocre one. If flying VF take a little time to listen in and try to identify local landmarks used for reporting. Good for Helo flying with two "virtual" pads North and South. New International airport 18.5 kms to the North due to become operational shortly. Unknown impact at this stage.

Properly "Modimolle Airfield"
Officially, this should be "Modimolle Airfield", but according to Wikipedia and other sources, most people still refer to the town (and the airport) by its former name, Nylstroom.
Operated by the East Rand Flying Club
The East Rand Flying Club operates Springs Airfield, and they hold a fly-in breakfast every summer. Here's a thread on this year's:

Magnificent Airfield near Cape Town
This is probably one of the most beautiful airfields in the world with a great club.
Surrounded by vineyards with magestic mountains and the Indian Ocean as back drops.
No better place to sit after an afternoon flight and enjoy a cold beer or to have a breakfast outside the clubhouse after a morning flip.
New airline - Wonderboom Pretoria, South Africa
We all wait in anticipation for the awarding of a license for a big airline company to operate from Wonderboom to major cities in SA. Do anybody know who they got in mind?? SAA Expres, 1Time, Kulula?????????????????????
Contact details
No contact details for this airport. . .
re: Scheduled Commercial flights starting soon??!!
According to the airport's web site, they're planning to renovate Wonderboom to become ZA's third major international airport, but I see no indication of any schedule airline service there yet.
Scheduled Commercial flights starting soon??!!
I hear scheduled flights are going to start soon from Wonderboom? Apparently this will happen next year sometime and routes will open to Cape Town, Durban, PE and George. Has anyone got more information?
thanks
Some Companies have "Unknown"

— Anonymous Flyer at O.R. Tambo International Airport, South Africa
Why do some companies, eg Iberia have "unknown" and I have been told that it was due at 10.50 and 11.20. Now I wonder if it arrived and whether one must go and pick-up the passenger that we expect to arrive today
