One of the slightly unusual sights outside the Port Elizabeth Airport is an Impala MkI sitting on top of a pillar next to Aviators Pub and Grill. It kinda looks like a scene from a SciFi movie with a spaceship docked at a space diner. The Impalas were used as training aircraft by the SA Airforce in the past and this one got a prime spot to retire at.

We have one of the fighters on a large curving arch close to our house in the UK. It is quite stunning especially at night as there is a light directly on it. Diane

Interesting how it's perched there!
ReplyDeleteBetter than the scrap heap - and think how many little (and big) boys are thrilled by it every day!
ReplyDeleteI always feel like I am in PE when I see said plane.
