Mazda - Annabel Vundla - STORY-TELLING AT ITS BEST.

The LUDUS recently had the privilege of working with the talented storyteller Ernest Nkosi - #fullpostproduction - from Production-House Bomb Commercials. The project features an incredible black woman Annabel Vundla. Her story is a remarkable one #pureinspiration

A big thank you to the good people at Agency Grey Wolfpack and team Fran Luckin, Glenn Jeffery, Marais Rensburg, Joanna Court, Lara Bayley and Brett David.

Major ANNABEL VUNDLA - SOUTH AFRICAN AIR FORCE’S FIRST BLACK FEMALE PILOT AND FLIGHT INSTRUCTOR: Annabel Macauley, from Mafikeng, was the first black female pilot, and later instructor, in the SAAF.

Her dream started when her father showed her a Boeing’s cockpit when she was 5 years old. After Matric, she spent a month at a chartered accountant firm, followed by a year as an assistant teacher, but neither career interested her.

In 2002 she did a six-month instructor’s rating course in the USA. She taught her first pupils at Langebaanweg in 2004. She was also the Ground Liaison Officer for the SAAF’s aerobatics team, the Silver Falcons.

Annabel has taken part in flying formation for parades, the Opening of Parliament, and the Ten Years of Freedom celebrations. Annabel is the daughter of Sydney, a church minister, and Annie. She has a twin brother who is a university lecturer, an older sister who studied economics in England and a younger brother.
