Two planes were involved in a very close call doing a flyover before South Africa faced New Zealand in Cape Town (Sky Sports Rugby Union on X, August 29, 2026). Watching these two Airlink Embraers skim over DHL Stadium in Cape Town is one of those moments that looks completely insane from the ground. This was a planned flyby for the Springboks-All Blacks match, but the aircrafts were extremely low (Aviation Reporter @TripppleSeven7 on X).
CRAZY PILOTS! Two Airlink Embraer-190 Jets flew Dangerously Low over DHL Stadium in Cape Town During South Africa versus New Zealand Rugby Match. Two Airlink Embraer 190s flew over DHL Stadium in Cape Town during a game in a planned flyby. Nobody expected it to be so low! The pilots went extremely close and low over the stadium. Wow.
