Day 56: Huey Helicopter

Day 56: Huey Helicopter, originally uploaded by Craig Strachan.

This is an old Huey helicopter , used mainly in the Vietnam war. This

particular one is now used for tourist chopper flights over Cape Town. I

caught it in action flying over my house.

You can book a flight here if you are interested.

Minibus taxis as Friendly as SAA?

I only caught the tail end of this new item on Cape Talk this evening, but apparently the local minibus association is on a campaign to make its drivers more friendly. According to the spokesperson quoted on the radio "we are going to make our drivers as friendly as SAA staff".

I just hope that they are referring to the SAA cabin crew, who are generally pretty friendly, and not the call-center staff, who are quite friendly when spoken to, but otherwise impossible to get hold of!

Noble aims, but I wonder if they are not setting their heights a little too high?
