Stimela Events Presents: A Vintage Aviation Live Shoot

We are delighted to present a Vintage Aviation Live Shoot in partnership with the Classic Flying Collection at Springs Airfield on Saturday, 22 August 2026.

This exclusive photographic experience will feature three vintage aircraft, both in the air and on the ground, providing a variety of unique photographic opportunities.

Featured Aircraft:
✈️ Boeing Stearman PT-17 (Star of the Show)
✈️ De Havilland Tiger Moth
✈️ North American Harvard

Please note: The itinerary below represents our current planned programme and is subject to change depending on operational requirements, weather conditions, and aircraft availability.

The event will begin with approximately 30 minutes of flying displays, allowing photographers to capture these magnificent aircraft in their natural element from the ground.

Following the flying session, the aircraft will return to the airfield where they will be carefully positioned outside the hangar alongside their crews for a series of staged vintage aviation scenes and portrait opportunities. During this session, photographers will be able to get up close to the aircraft, providing excellent opportunities to capture details, portraits, and atmospheric vintage aviation scenes.

After a refreshment break, we will conclude the day with a night shoot, offering the chance to create dramatic images of these historic aircraft under artificial lighting. Don't forget your tripod!

Starting on Thursday, 21 May, we welcomed a small group of overseas visitors for a brief railway adventure in South Africa.

Their tour began in Gauteng, where we were able to show them a glimpse of railway activity in Johannesburg and Pretoria - including a visit to the James Hall Museum of Transport, a tour with our dear friends at Rovos Rail, and some trainspotting in the capital city.

From there, they flew on to Kimberley and then the Western Cape. Here are just a few images from their time in the Cape. Our friend and partner Derick Norton of Got-2-Travel guided them through some of the Cape’s stunning railway scenes, including regular commuter trains along the scenic Simon's Town railway line, followed by a visit to Franschhoek Wine Tram. Later that afternoon they enjoyed time at the magnificent Winelands Light Railway, operated by Andries Keyser.

Before heading home, the group also visited the Century City Tramway - another remarkable creation by Andries.

This was a significant moment for us: hosting our very first international group, and only our second visit to the Cape since 2022, when we hosted the Ceres Mountaineer.

More images and a full trip report will follow in due course, but for now, a sincere thank you to all our partners and venues who helped make the visit so memorable.

Rail tourism is alive and well in South Africa - and we’re proud to play a part in showcasing it.
