With only one licence, for the Sling 2, and one employee, we opened our hangar doors at Morningstar Airfield in April 2013. We soon realized that there was a gap in the market for an affordable and reliable Aircraft Maintenance Organisation int he Cape Town area. As our reputation grew, so did our business. Gareth Bosch, our avionics fundi, joined our team in 2015 and brought with him an remarkable knowledge of the industry and avionics. As the requests came in for larger spray projects, we took on Lyle Corns, who is a magician when it comes to using the spray gun, welding and repairing fiberglass. With the addition of Candice Van Der Merwe running the day to day operations and Kenny getting stuck into the admin and paper work our dynamic team has grown Sideslip Aviation into one of the most trusted Aircraft Maintenance organisations in the Western Cape. Since opening our doors we have 8 full time staff members and over 20 licences and continue to grow.
