The Airlink Adrenaline Wonderboom Airport Show taking place on 10 - 12 June 2016 at Wonderboom Airport is gearing up to be one of Africa’s biggest civilian air and automotive shows of 2016.
The event is part of Wonderboom Airport’s 80th
birthday celebrations and in partnership with the City of Tshwane, Airlink and
the tenants of Wonderboom Airport, represented by the Wonderboom Airport
Interest Group (WAIG).
A large percentage of the tenants have been
operating from the airport since its early days and would like to see the
airport flourish once again. Some tenants have therefore taken the initiative
to put on the ‘Adrenaline Show’ which will feature some of the best aerial, car
and motorbike displays South Africa has to offer.
Considered to be a first for South African
airshows, there will be a 4,1Km racetrack and a 950-meter drag race strip that
will give airshow attendees a unique mix of aviation and motorsport.
Another first for an airshow will be the
hosting of the Street Rod and Muscle Car Nationals.
Friday 10 June will be marked as Career Day.
Many learners are not aware of the career opportunities in the world of
aviation and the motorsport industries. The
Airlink Adrenaline show will give both these industries the opportunity to
assist learners in discovering the magic of aviation and motorsport.
Airlink is proud to be a part of the Airlink
Adrenaline Show at the City of Tshwane’s Wonderboom Airport.
This opportunity to support the Adrenaline
show allows Airlink to endorse Wonderboom Airport, to showcase the airports
allure as a gateway of choice for Gauteng, and together with its partner South
African Airways to emphasize its long term commitment to offering daily flights
between Tshwane and Cape Town from Wonderboom.
The Capital to Capital flights comprise up to
two services daily and provide the City of Tshwane’s business and leisure travelers
with simple and affordable quick and efficient access to Cape Town, and vice
versa.
Customers experience the convenience of
walk-on-walk-off aircraft access, a business class lounge, affordable parking
in close proximity to the terminal building, and local hotel
accommodation.
It takes less than 10 minutes to deplane,
collect your luggage, and get to your car, and you can check-in right up to
twenty minutes prior to departure.
In short, the service is simple, efficient,
under-promised and over-delivered, and competitively affordable.
Tshwane houses approximately three million
residents, and several thousand businesses located in multiple business
commercial and industrial nodes.
All businesses, industries and communities
located in and around Tshwane can benefit from the scheduled flights. In
particular, manufacturing sectors such as the automotive industry and various
diplomatic missions and NGO’s located within the catchment in the area, where
there is a strong nexus with their counterparts in Cape Town, also benefit from
air services at Wonderboom.
For business travellers, Airlink offers an
intra-continental (as in intra Europe) style business class service on its
83-seater Avro RJ85 regional jet that operates the route.
Airlink’s Grey Sunbird Lounge provides
private sanctuary to all Business class passengers, as well as to Voyager
members, Gold/Platinum/Lifetime Platinum.
Benefits for Airlink customers include Voyager Miles.
Flight reservations can be made with your
booking agent or SAA Central Reservations on +27 11 978 1111, and for
online bookings visit www.flyairlink.com
or www.flysaa.com
AirTeam, headed by well-known business
man, skilled pilot and Air Boss Chris Briers, is proud to be associated with an
airshow of this magnitude. Chris was
approached by Christian Maiorana from Villa San Giovanni, to become part of the
organising committee due to his experience in the organsitation of airshows all
over South Africa as well as Botswana and Namibia. “The Adrenaline Show is expected to grow into
South Africa’s premier aviation attraction,” said Chris.
The
driving force behind the Airlink Adrenaline show is Villa San Giovanni (VSG)
and is a proud sponsor of the Airlink Adrenaline show.
“VSG has
been operating at the airport for 35 years, and is privilege to be involved as
a sponsor of this very first Adrenaline show”, said Christian Maiorana, partner
of VSG.
“It is
always very exciting to be part of bringing new family events to our community
especially when they are hosted on our door step! As a strong supporter of
Wonderboom airport we are especially honoured to be part of an event that is
going to bring positive exposure and growth to the airport and its tenants. We
look forward to a spectacular event and are positive it’s going to be Tshwane’s
new annual event of choice,” continued Maiorana.
Joining
Airlink and Villa San Giovanni as a partner is the Hot Rod Shop.
The Hot
Rod Shop will bring Street Rods, Super cars and Muscle cars to the show. Jakes
van Staden owner of the Hot Rod Shop will host the Street Rod and Muscle Car Show
at the Airlink Adrenaline Show.
