๐Ÿ“ธ Celebrating our Photo of the Month for July 2026!

Thank you, Mikhail Mannetti for capturing this beautiful view of Victoria Falls from the Aero Commander. โœˆ๏ธ

Thereโ€™s something about seeing the Falls from above that never gets old โ€” the Zambezi River, the spray rising from the Falls, and the landscape stretching out beyond it all.

A beautiful reminder of just how incredible Africa looks from the skies.

Congratulations, Mikhail, on a very worthy Photo of the Month! ๐Ÿ†

๐Ÿ“ธ Celebrating our Photo of the Month for June 2026!

A big congratulations to Leonardo de Oliveira, whose incredible aerial photograph has been selected as our June winner! ๐Ÿ‘

This stunning image showcases the Brandberg, Namibia's highest mountain. While it's one of Namibia's most iconic landmarks, it isn't often photographed from the air, making images like this all the more special.

Worth celebrating. Worth showcasing. A well-deserved Photo of the Month. ๐Ÿ†

๐ŸŽฅ Reel of the Month | May 2026

With the recent cold weather settling in across Namibia, weโ€™re feeling a little nostalgic for the rains that filled the Etosha Pan earlier this year.

Captured by Mikhail Mannetti, our May Reel of the Month takes us back to an incredible sight of Etoshaโ€”water stretching across the pan as far as the eye can see.

Congratulations, Mikhail Mannetti, on winning our May Reel of the Month competition.

Photo of the Month | May 2026

A well-earned rest after a busy day in the skies for our trusted V5-DAS, Cessna 206.

Our May Photo of the Month, captured by Phillip Potgieter in Sossusvlei, showcases one of those scenes that reminds us how special it is to fly and work in Namibia. As the Namib Desert settles for the evening, a day filled with unforgettable scenic flights comes to an end.

Congratulations, Phillip, and thank you for sharing this moment with us.
