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; 896 was delivered in March 1974. The fleet was retired in 1992/1993 and replaced by Dakotas, the very aircraft the Albatross was introduced to replace. 896 served with 27 Sqd its entire service life and arrived at the SAAF Museum Ysterplaat in October 1991.

This is actually a SAAF formation. The Cessna served with the light aircraft squadrons of the SAAF. The Chipmunk was delivered to the RAF's Rhodesian Air Training Group at RAF Heany outside Bulawayo in then Southern Rhodesia in 1951. The following year it suffered a mishap and was stored before sold to South Africa where it was restored and flown by SAAF crews under the auspices of the SAAF Museum. Here seen en-route to a fly-in at Margate, in the then Natal. Photographer unknown

The South African Air Force purchased 12 used Caravans. ZS-MEF was delivered 26 October 1988 and entered service with 41 Sqd. The Caravan fleet was given military serials after the 1994 elections but retained their civilian colour schemes. With the unification of all armed forces into the South African National Defence Force, the Caravans were given a more unified military look with national insignia and squadron markings. Written off as 3004 at Langebaanweg 3 March 2016. Registered N9699F prior to delivery. Photographer unknown
