THE KARKLOOF AVIATOR

Household died in Pietermaritzburg in 1906, two years after the first Wright Brothers’ flight. In 1995 the Lions River Heritage Society and the South African Air Force Association erected the Goodman Household Monument to commemorate his achievement. The monument can be found on the district road between Karkloof and Curry’s Post, 23 kms from Howick in the KwaZulu-Natal Midlands.
