For more than a century, Rand Airport has been an important part of South Africa's aviation story.

Officially opened in 1929, Rand Airport served as Johannesburg's primary airport before the opening of Palmietfontein Airport and later Jan Smuts Airport (now O. R. Tambo International Airport).

Today, Rand Airport remains one of South Africa's busiest general aviation airports. It is home to flight training organisations, aircraft maintenance facilities, charter operators, aviation businesses and beautifully preserved historic aircraft - making it a living centre of aviation heritage.

Whether you're training for your first licence, maintaining an aircraft or simply enjoying a day around classic aeroplanes, Rand Airport continues to inspire the next generation of South African aviators.

💡 Did you know?
Rand Airport's original Art Deco terminal building, completed in 1931, is still in use today and is regarded as one of South Africa's most iconic aviation landmarks.
