Lanseria International Airport

A large, busy airport with domestic airline service from a modern terminal, and plenty of GA action and lots of open hangars for our ramp tour. We visited on 21st September.

Country codes If, like me, you're not familiar with many African aircraft country codes, here's a decode of the ones on this page: 3C- Equatoral Guinea, 5R- Madagascar, 5Y-Kenya, 9G- Ghana, 9J- Zambia, D2- Angola, V5- Namibia, ZS- South Africa general, ZT-R-- South Africa type certified rotorcraft, ZU- South Africa non-type certified aircraft.
