Our History and proud heritage;

In 1990 Pat White (33) formed a company in South Africa called A.F.S Marketing Ltd to pursue an idea gained from his hobby of model boat building. it was a small prototype model hovercraft that started the ball rolling and resulted in the first "FLYLOAD HOVER PLATFORM" that was capable of floating 2 tonnes on a thin film of air.
Rapidly word got around - as things do in Africa and Patrick was approached by a leading household magazine, Personality who wanted to do a story on the "invention" .

That was 21 years ago
