Another great day flying through the mountains

First Sofia visiting the Palace of Culture

Very interesting looking building

Into the mountains, climbing up a valley in Rila national park

The top is obscured in the clouds

The clouds stuck with the mountains, Pirin National Park in full sunlight

Kosharka, in one of the wide open spaces between the mountain ranges

Skopje, the capital of North Macedonia

The stone bridge, symbol of Skopje, and Archeological museum. It’s the bridge just after the thin rectangular building on the right of the Vardar river in the picture above.

What caught my eye is all the statues all over the city, including this giant one of Alexander the Great on Macedonia square. If that was added to FS2020 it would likely be reported as a bug!

National park Mavrovo, heading back into rainy weather

Stunning views, awesome to fly through

Luzni-Bulaç on the other side

Tirana, I think I’ll just stay inside

Berat, so much to see around here

Tomorri mountain national park

Ohrid on lake Ohrid

It has this cute St John the Theologian orthodox church on the water

Kastoria/ See that cave entrance at the bottom of the hill, front left

It’s called the Dragon’s lair.

Loannina, back in the rain

There are these old castle ruins, castle of Loannina.

Passing Glifa at sunset

Flying over Skiatos to make a 180 over the Agean sea to come in for a landing

Coming in for the final stop of the day

The plane is all clean and shiny after all that rain!
