南非航空公司Airlink宣布取消原定于约翰内斯堡周末进行的低空飞行表演1。该公司首席执行官de Villiers Engelbrecht表示,取消决定是因为"天气预报显示不利于安全编队飞行的条件"1。
此前,Airlink在8月29日于开普敦进行的橄榄球比赛中执行了一场引发广泛关注的飞行表演1。两架飞机以编队方式通过体育场,领头飞机距离体育场顶部不到15米(50英尺)1。每架飞机上配备了三名资深机长,总飞行经验达75,000小时1。南非民用航空局随后对这次飞行进行了合规性审查1。
南非在国际民用航空组织的全球安全排名中位列第七,在非洲排名第一1。南非商业航空领域超过四十年未发生致命事故1。
Airlink, a South African carrier, has cancelled a planned repeat aerial display scheduled for a rugby match in Johannesburg this weekend, citing adverse weather conditions unsuitable for safe formation flying 1. The decision follows the airline's high-profile low-altitude pass over a Cape Town stadium on August 29, which garnered widespread viral attention and prompted scrutiny of aviation safety protocols 1.
During the original August 29 flyover, two aircraft conducted a formation pass with the lead plane descending to less than 15 metres (50 feet) above the stadium roof 1. Each aircraft carried three senior pilots with a combined flight experience of 75,000 hours 1. The South African Civil Aviation Authority has launched a compliance review of the flight 1. Airlink's Chief Executive Officer, de Villiers Engelbrecht, stated that the decision to cancel the Johannesburg display reflected weather forecasts indicating conditions "not conducive to safe formation flying" 1.
South Africa maintains a strong aviation safety record, ranking seventh globally and first in Africa by the International Civil Aviation Organization 1. The nation's commercial aviation sector has recorded no fatal accidents over more than four decades 1.
