KAVU days in South Africa

By KAVU

The idea was for Lizz and I, along with Pat Walker, to take a break from the winter in the Northern Hemisphere and travel to where the Indian Ocean and the Atlantic meet in a dramatic way, right on the southern tip of the African continent. Word on the streets is that there is some serious beauty, and some wild flying to be done around Cape Town and, it's a place I'd never been!

So...... February KAVU Days in South Africa, it was!

Seeing new places is much more fun If you are base jumping, It gives you a reason to visit places you probably wouldn't go.

KAVU is an aviation acronym for “clear above visibility unlimited,” when there isn’t a cloud in the sky and you can see to the horizon. That limitless feeling is our guiding philosophy. It means treating every day like it’s special, and then getting out and doing whatever brings on the perma-grin. That’s KAVU.
