When the Wright Brothers took to the air in 1903, the human imagination acquired wings… defying the law of gravity… designed by visionaries, built by engineers… a future limited only by the imagination. For these South African pilots and engineers – the sky’s the limit. Lieutenant Colonel Nandi Zama is a pilot in the South African air force. She’s the first black woman in the history of South Africa to command and fly a C130bz Hercules, based at 28 squadron at air force base Waterkloof in Pretoria.
