found this today. the warbird vids i've linked haven't garnered too much attention, perhaps this will...

That's a nice video! There are some good memories in that - Nationwide that is now defunct (although rumors in SA are that they are going to start again soon)...SA B732's that are now all retired...the SP and the 744's that have left the fleet...I've spent many long hours in years gone by looking at that traffic...way before I had a digital as well...

Nice memories there!

Nice memories there!
i did enjoy watching the massive amount of 732s running about, and the flyby of the 747SP was a treat. mark, are you from S Africa?

I lived there 32 years - originally from the UK, but moved to SA when I was 6 - so I spent the majority of my life there - Johannesburg, Durban and Cape Town.

did i see a Nando's jet in there?? Aren't they a restaurant chain? Don't think we have them here but they're pretty popular abroad. UPDATED: just checked their site and apparently there's one in DC.

i guess it's for their corporate brass or perhaps delivery? :)

Yes - 1Time ran a Nando's jet for a while - they have an Avis one at the moment if I remember right.
