Kimberley can truly be called the nursery of flying in Southern Africa. This national monument is located on the site of the continent's first flying school, which was established in 1912/13, and which was the birthplace of the South African Air Force.
It is a reconstruction of the hangar, containing a replica of the Compton Paterson biplane use in flight training by the first pupil pilots.
