JNB – Johannesburg Airport is one of my absolute favourites in the world. Since my first visit in April 1998, I am hooked. During a visit in 2002 I spent a lot of time airside shooting. The variety in traffic is fantastic. From the big widebodies to the regional Embrairs.

Back in 2002 I was fortunate to do a photo shoot with Nationwide in South Africa. I got to fly all of their different aircraft types in their fleet to many great destinations. What triggered me most was the flights I did on the Bac 1-11.

I have been extremely busy the past months with my new project. My company, Viking Aviation Photo, will now produce cockpit DVD’s from the planning to filming and now producing them too.

A couple of years ago I was down in Réunion, a small island outside the coast of Africa, on an assignment working with Air Austral. It was a lovely sunny, warm and nice island and a great company to work with. Easy going pilots and management, just like it should be. After a couple of [...]

As I went inside and started the immigration procedure again I met up with the station manager who informed me that tomorrow’s flights were cancelled. Aircraft had [...]

Heading back north

As soon as all passengers and luggage were on board we started the start up procedure again. Squeeze into the tight cockpit and find my spot to stand until we reach the runway and I get to sit down and prepare my cameras for take off.
