Africa-Press – South-Africa. The United States on Wednesday imposed sanctions on a flying school headquartered in Oudtshoorn, saying its relationship with China posed a risk to American interests.
But the Test Flying Academy of South Africa (TFASA) is not particularly worried, saying in a statement its inclusion on the US department of commerce’s Entity List “does not affect TFASA’s day to day operations”.
The company apparently came to the attention of American authorities after the United Kingdom issued a “threat alert” naming it in October, leading to a flurry of investigations as far afield as Australia, and accusations up to and including facilitating treason.
