Overview of Business

Aeronautical Works (Pty) Ltd is a proudly South African aviation and aerospace startup on a mission to revolutionise aerial services across Africa. Headquartered in the rural mining hub of Moruleng, Rustenburg, we specialise in unmanned aerial systems (UAS) operations, charter flight services, and aerial intelligence solutions for sectors such as mining, security, infrastructure, logistics, and agriculture.

We operate cutting-edge DJI Matrice 4E and M30 drones, delivering high-precision, cost-effective services including aerial mapping, inspections, surveying, and real-time surveillance. By integrating AI and high-resolution imaging, we provide actionable data that enhances operational efficiency and decision-making for our clients.

Looking ahead, we are expanding into helicopter and jet charter services through strategic partnerships, making premium aviation solutions accessible to rural and remote communities traditionally underserved by the industry.

As a black youth-founded enterprise with strong community ties, Aeronautical Works is deeply committed to innovation, local empowerment, and aviation safety. We are currently pursuing our Remote Operator Certificate (ROC) with the South African Civil Aviation Authority (SACAA) and preparing to launch our proprietary flight booking platform: Aero Works App.

Through strategic collaboration and advanced aerial technologies, Aeronautical Works is reimagining how Africa operates from the sky—smarter, safer, and more inclusively.
