Our Story
Pioneering Ag Aviation Since 1992
Founded in 1992 by aviation enthusiast Fanie Keyser on a farm in Viljoenskroon, Fantini Air began as a humble crop-spraying operation. As demand grew, we moved to Kroonstad Airport and launched our flight school and AMO. Today we’re the only equipped SACAA-1094–accredited facility in South Africa—and all of Africa—dedicated to training crop-spraying pilots. At our Kroonstad campus in the Free State, our one-on-one approach ensures every student gets the guidance and hands-on experience needed to excel.
