Inclement weather has been blamed for the deaths of two pilots who flew from Mpumalanga in two separate aircraft and then crashed in KwaZulu-Natal.
The Accidents and Incidents Investigations Division AIDD of the SA Civil Aviation Authority SACAA said reports were that both aircraft had flown in a loose formation from Secunda Airport en route to Margate Airport in the KwaZulu-Natal South Coast.
However, they went missing when in KwaZulu-Natal.
