Aviators Paradise

Unread post by Sands »

Greetings to all. Aviators Paradise is having a “family Braai day” on the 16 of October. “Drive in” or “fly in”.
Please go to the Facebook page “piper & piper” for all the details. Hope to see you there. The restaurant is also open 7 days a week for breakfast and burgers and a special every so often.

Aviators Paradise has been sold, and Piper & Pipers no longer operating according to the owner.
Believe the tenants renting hangars were given 30 days notice. Any idea what the plans are?

Their latest advice says the land has been bought out by a Mining Company. They are moving to Bokfontein Airfield +- 4km to the SW of FAAP
