Reply to @ptomblin: Not an answer to your question but some 'trivia' - On Lufthansa's Airbus 380 between Or Tambo and Frankfurt they consistently show the departure airport (Johannesburg) as Olifants River Bridge on their in flight maps !!!

Hi guys
Just to clarify, Mango (738's) and Comair (Kulula.com and the local British Airways operator with various 737 models) only have pilot bases in Cape Town, along with SA Express (CRJ2 and DH4Q) , SAA (738's) and SA Airlink (ERJ and Avro RJ's). This is not the 'home' bases of these airlines. All of them have the Head Offices in Johannesburg (OR Tambo International).
Its not a biggie, I know...but still, its more correct.

there are no scheduled flight to Springbok, you will have to fly to Cape Town and hire a car, or you have to charter a plane. Springbok is only a small town with a small airport.

Reply to @Pivot: I believe in that case that David (the owner of this site) has been assigning arbitrary ids to airports that don't have an official designator.
Reply to @ptomblin:
I wrote the senior manager for aerodromes and facilities in South Africa and he says "Olifants is not a licensed aerodrome therefore I cannot confirm their locator". So there is no ICAO ident for this airport. Now what?

Reply to @ptomblin: From what I've been told Olifants never had an ICAO ident. FAOR was used for a now decommissioned airport. So I don't know what we can now use for Olifants.

The ICAO designator for this airport is now FAOR - O.R Tambo International Airport (Previously FAJS). Thus: FAOR is now the designator for the largest airport in South/ern Africa.

hi there
I would really like to be in touch with someone who flies from Johannesburg to Port Alfred regularly; and who would consider taking me on as a passengar. Our family has a home at Kasouga; my boys are at school in PE; and I would love to be able to get to see them more often. The commercial flights are not as flexible as I would need them to be; and they are really costly. Is there a way of communicating with these people on this site? My name is Nikki and I can be contacted on nknight725@gmail.com or 0833091835. Many thanks
