For two special children, their dreams of soaring through the sky came true last Saturday.<\/p>\n

Lebohang Tsotsotso (5) and Tlhalefo Mabe (10) both suffer from life-threatening illnesses and thanks to the Reach for a Dream Foundation, Pick n Pay and Springbok Classic Air (based at Rand Airport), the little boys got to fly in a Beech 18 aircraft.<\/p>

Lebohang, who lives in Krugersdorp, was diagnosed with leukaemia in 2013.<\/p>\n

His mom Moratoa told the GCN that his treatment was progressing very well.<\/p>

\u201cHe is currently in Grade R and can\u2019t wait to start Grade One next year,\u201d she said.<\/p>\n

\u201cLebohang loves planes and flying and he also enjoys skateboarding and playing Playstation.\u201d<\/p>\n

Tlhalefo is also suffering from a life-threatening illness and he hails from the North West.<\/p>\n

His mom Irene said he was extremely excited about the flight.<\/p>\n

The aircraft the boys flew in was no ordinary one either.<\/p>\n
