First named Airport, then JBM Hertzog, then Bloemfontein, now Bram Fischer International Airport. 'A neat evocation of air-travel'. Good planning leads to little fuss or confusion. A high spacious, gracious concourse contains possibly the largest chandeliers in South Africa of its time. References: Greig, Doreen. 1971. A Guide to Architecture in South Africa.
