During the 1960s, the South African Air Force recognized the requirement for an inshore maritime patrol and fisheries surveillance aircraft. With an already established relationship with Piaggio the P-166 was chosen. Named Albatross in SAAF service, the first was delivered in October 1969; 884 was delivered the same December. The fleet was retired in 1992/1993 and replaced by Dakotas, the very aircraft the Albatross replaced. 884 was sold as ZS-NJX in June 1993. Written off 14 August 2011 in a controlled flight into terrain accident at Mamotswiri Peak near Tzaneen, Limpopo. Photographer unknown

The SAAF introduced the King Air as a communications aircraft in the early 1980s. Initially they were operated by 21 Sqd on civilian register offering extra discretion when operating to civilian airfields and outside the RSA. The stripes are the same as seen on SAAF DH.125s from the same period. ZS-LNT was delivered in September 1983 and became 654 in October 1995 and later re-registered 650. Photographer unknown
