CAVU over Greenland

Stunning.
 I don't think I've heard/used CAVU since my Navy days 30+ years ago.

Usually a beautiful day.

Only exceeded by a severe CAVU!

Never heard that before.
That's a great pic!
An HD version of that would be awesome.

That's when CAVU is especially impressive and grand.

Thomas, how did you get such a clean window?  My few experiences are hampered by a window that looks like it had last been cleaned with steel wool and then the plane landed on a mud runway.  Oh well, enjoyed the view.

I noticed a 'water spot' in the upper left corner (ha,ha).

I am no longer flying, but that one came from by brother who does 777's across the atlantic every week.

In my flying days, we sometimes referred to CAVU as "Severe Clear". ;-)
