Two Airlink Embraer 190s just flew dangerously low over DHL Stadium in Cape Town, South Africa. AirNav Radar tracking shows the aircraft reaching a lowest recorded altitude of 50 ft at standard pressure. With DHL Stadium standing about 164 ft above sea level, the aircraft was estimated to pass...

Stupid, dangerously low.

Using a barometric guestimate to measure mere meters, plus a distorted side-on perspective with a highly sloped roof. Show this angle as well, does that look like 50ft?

🚨FNB Stadium: Springbok vs All Blacks Rugby match DO NOT listen to lies about this weekend FLYOVER 📹 By Newzroom Afrika FNB Stadium Flyover cancelled due to adverse weather conditions and unfavorable safety forecasts and not because of complaints. News Report Overview: The news anchor reports that Airlink withdrew its application for a low-level fly-past scheduled for the weekend's third test of rugby’s greatest rivalry tour at the DHL Cape Town Stadium due to adverse weather conditions and unfavorable safety forecasts. Regulatory Investigation: The South African Civil Aviation Authority (SACAA) is investigating last weekend's Airlink fly-past ahead of the Springbok and All Blacks clash. Aviation Expert Analysis: Aviation expert Phuthego Mojapele joins the discussion from Johannesburg to analyze the regulatory frameworks and international obligations under ICAO (International Civil Aviation Organization). He explains that the SACAA is obligated to investigate any complaints or compliance issues concerning commercial airlines. Simulator and Verification: Mojapele notes that the approved flight profile was thoroughly tested and rehearsed using simulators for hours before execution, ensuring the airline followed all approved protocols and requirements. Cultural Context: Mojapele defends the traditional fly-pasts that are a staple of South African rugby events, arguing that as a sovereign state, South Africa should be allowed to manage its aviation protocols according to established traditions without outside interference.

MAINSTREAM MEDIA CALLED IT RECKLESS, SOUTH AFRICA CALLS IT TRADITION🚨 Two Airlink Embraers roared over DHL Stadium before the Springboks beat the All Blacks yesterday and what happened? The internet exploded with unbelievable keyboard warrior analysis, “too low, dangerous, could have been catastrophic” and a whole lot more. What all these “critics” and keyboard analysts don’t know or perhaps have forgotten, South African pilots have been doing this for decades. In 1995 at Ellis Park, Captain Laurie Kay flew “Lebombo”, a Boeing 747 low over a packed World Cup final stadium. Remember what was painted on the underwings and belly of the Jumbo jet? “GOOD LUCK BOKKE” In Cape Town yesterday was the same tradition, not a stunt cooked up for wows, views and clicks but to give the Bokke power and good luck but let’s see what these “critics” skipped: ▪️SA Civil Aviation Authority approved ▪️Three senior captains in each cockpit ▪️Planned altitude and speed of 150 knots planned ▪️Flight data was inside the approved limits ▪️Pilots are trained in some of the world’s harshest weather conditions, Cape southeaster winds, highveld thunderstorms, mountain waves and short African runways ▪️The 40ft clearance over the roof was tight and spectacular but not illegal and certainly without improvisation A packed stadium with fireworks doing their magic and two crews who executed a brief that takes planning most keyboard experts will never see is called skill, it’s also called pride. If your first instinct is panic instead of precision, you are not watching aviation, you are watching a camera angle which can be misleading. Let’s praise the crews for this spectacular show and always remember Laurie Kay, the fine top class pilot who started this. Stop treating excellence like a crime guys, it’s not.

The last couple minutes of this flight was hell. K2 Airways Cargo Boeing 737 Disappears Over Arabian Sea Near Karachi; Five Crew Missing Karachi, Pakistan — July 7, 2026 A K2 Airways cargo flight vanished from radar over the Arabian Sea on Tuesday night while approaching Pakistani airspace, prompting a major search-and-rescue operation for the five crew members on board. Flight KTA1732, a Boeing 737-400 freighter registered AP-BOI, departed Sharjah International Airport (SHJ) in the United Arab Emirates shortly after 15:00 UTC (around 20:00 PKT) bound for Karachi’s Jinnah International Airport (KHI). The aircraft disappeared approximately 155 nautical miles (about 287–300 km) west of Karachi, near the coastal town of Ormara in Balochistan. Timeline of Events: According to the Pakistan Airports Authority and preliminary ADS-B data from Flightradar24: • At approximately 21:18 PKT, the crew reported a navigation system issue to the Karachi Area Control Centre and requested assistance with course guidance. Air traffic controllers provided immediate support. • At 21:21 PKT, radar showed the aircraft entering a rapid descent accompanied by a sharp change in heading. • Radar and radio contact were lost shortly afterward. ADS-B tracking data revealed abnormal flight behavior in the final minutes: the aircraft experienced a significant loss of altitude, followed by a brief climb, and then a catastrophic descent. The final data point, recorded at 16:21 UTC, placed the aircraft at 1,100 feet above mean sea level with a vertical rate of -22,400 feet per minute — an extremely high rate of descent consistent with an uncontrolled situation. Ground speed had dropped to around 114 knots. Authorities have not yet released an official cause. Early reports noted some GNSS interference near Sharjah shortly after departure (which also affected other aircraft in the area), but tracking data resumed normally once the flight was over the Arabian Sea. Aircraft and Airline Background The Boeing 737-4M0(BDSF) freighter (MSN 29210) was a 27-year-old aircraft originally delivered to Aeroflot as a passenger jet in 1999. It later flew for Garuda Indonesia before being converted to a freighter in 2012. It subsequently operated with TNT Airways / ASL Airlines Belgium and briefly with FedEx Express before being delivered to K2 Airways in October 2024. K2 Airways, a Pakistani cargo startup, operated this aircraft as its sole freighter. The loss leaves the airline without an operational aircraft. The flight was carrying five crew members — all Pakistani nationals — and was operating as a cargo service (reportedly a ferry flight following maintenance in Sharjah with no freight on board).

The NTSB has released its preliminary findings into the September 6 crash of 21 Air Flight 7598, a Boeing 767-33A operating an Amazon cargo flight from San Juan to Miami. The aircraft crossed Runway 30’s threshold at 177 knots groundspeed, touching down about 3,750 ft beyond the threshold at 160 knots. The 9,360-ft runway had no EMAS at the departure end. The CVR shows the crew was dealing with excessive speed during the approach. The FO repeatedly cautioned about the speed, while the aircraft generated multiple “SINK RATE” and “TOO LOW TERRAIN” alerts. The aircraft touched down about 31 seconds before the CVR recording ended. Just 15 seconds before the end of the recording, the captain called for a go-around. But the aircraft was already well into the landing rollout. The FDR found that: • Speed brakes remained stowed • Thrust reversers did not deploy • Wheel braking was first applied at 146 knots • The brakes were released about 8 seconds later at 120 knots • Both engines were advanced to go-around thrust • At that point, only about 930 ft of runway remained • Engine thrust was then reduced to idle and braking reapplied • The aircraft left the runway at 113 knots It subsequently struck the localizer and MALSR, crossed the airport perimeter, impacted a Ford Econoline passenger van and a Toyota Corolla Cross, and came to rest about 1,200 ft beyond the paved runway surface. The accident killed five people on the ground, seriously injured three others and left both pilots with minor injuries. The NTSB says the FDR and engineering data will be incorporated into an aircraft performance study to further analyze the approach, landing and rollout. This is still a preliminary investigation. The NTSB has not yet determined the probable cause.

🚨🇺🇸 In 1980, the United States built an aircraft for a mission that sounded impossible. Land a large military plane inside a stadium in the middle of Tehran. Rescue hostages. Take off again before anyone could respond. The aircraft was a Lockheed C 130 Hercules. The program was called Credible Sport. Engineers transformed the C 130 into something closer to a missile than a transport aircraft. They attached 30 rocket motors across the nose, wings, and fuselage. Some rockets fired downward to slow the aircraft just seconds before touchdown. Others fired forward to bring it to an almost instant stop. More rockets pointed backward to blast the aircraft into the air during takeoff. The goal was extreme short takeoff and landing inside a confined urban stadium with no runway. Pilots trained to descend steeply at night, ignite rockets just above the ground, stop in a few hundred feet, load hostages, then launch out using raw rocket thrust. Everything had to be perfect. One mistimed rocket meant total destruction. During testing, a malfunction caused a crash and exposed how dangerous the concept truly was. The aircraft survived. The idea survived. The mission never happened. Diplomacy freed the hostages before Credible Sport was deployed. But for a brief moment in history, a C 130 was turned into a rocket powered rescue aircraft designed to invade a capital city, land in a stadium, and escape. No aircraft before or since has been built for a mission this extreme.
