HELICOPTER FLIGHTS SOUTH AFRICA
Who is Makana Aviation?
Founded in 2000 by Joint Venture Partnership:
Makana Investment & NAC.
National Airways Corporation (known as NAC) has been in the general aviation business since 1946. It has developed over the years into the largest company offering helicopter flights in South Africa, and one of the largest general aviation companies in Africa. We have branch operations in Lanseria, Rand, Wonderboom, Durban, Cape Town and Gaborone in Botswana.

NAC is a company that prides itself on its strong traditional values, its experience in aircraft services, aircraft sales and support of over half a century has joined forces and its endless commitment to service excellence. Makana Logistics brings to the partnership its strong African Leadership skills, its extensive network and its access to untapped markets. The two outstanding Companies have united forces to form a union with the ultimate formulae for success.

As one of the world’s most respected general aviation companies, we primarily focus on aircraft sales, aircraft maintenance and refurbishment, avionics and parts sales and support and flight operations incorporating charter, contract flying and pilot training.

Makana Logistics, the majority shareholder in the venue, is part of the commercial arm of the Makana Trust that was established in 1995 at the reunion of former political prisoners on Robben Island. At the reunion it became very clear that the majority of ex-political prisoners were subjected to extreme poverty and lacked the basic skills to compete and a democratic society. Because of this embarrassing situation the former President Mr. Nelson Mandela called for the formation of the Ex-Political Prisoners Committee chaired by Mr. Ahmed Kathrada.

Several Cabinet Ministers and prominent business individuals who are all former political prisoners serve on this Committee. One of the initiatives of this committee was the formation of the Makana Trust. The objective of the Trust is to pursue commercial activities so as to raise funds to address the plight of former political prisoners and their dependents.
