Airlink Jets Make Low Flypast Before South Africa–New Zealand Match in Cape Town
1 / 2

The aircraft appeared unusually low from the ground, prompting strong reactions online. However, the viral claim that the display was a “near miss” or almost caused a tragedy is not supported by the available information. The flypast was part of the pre-match entertainment, though low-level aviation displays naturally raise safety concerns among viewers.
