Germiston from the air

Much of Germiston, Primrose and Elsburg lies close enough that operators must plan airspace before any flight, and casual hobby flying near home is off the table. The work is mostly industrial. Factories in Wadeville and Isando want roof and solar inspections, rail yards and warehouses want site records, and insurers want damage photos after hail. Bedfordview adds property and event work, and Germiston Lake is a popular backdrop. Summer hail and lightning are the main weather risks, and winter mornings can be hazy with smoke from industry and fires.
