Interesting Places to Fly - Part Deux

Visited two interesting cities in Italy:

Venice. Interesting for obvious reasons.





Palmanova. The city streets are shaped around it like a star.

Verdon Gorge, France

That one is on my list of places to visit.

I’m surprised it wasn’t included in the France update…

(well actually maybe not, not until they fix their morphing problems)

Bavljenac area Croatia. Several cruise ships.

The Lion Point UK. Took me a while of flying around in circles to find it.

An interesting fort on the top of a rock. I can’t remember for sure which island it was but it was close to Guadeloupe.

This one is in Lebanon or Israel. Reminds me of Lukla or Coruchevel.

I found this one from a YouTube video. Johston Atoll Johnston Island- has a very colourful history pertaining to WW2 and is now defunct, however the NDB (388 on the meter) still works! Beautiful island with runways in dispair. I wouldn’t try landing anything bigger than a Cesna on the main runway (if you can find it amongst the weeds!).

Imagine playing that course! Before they moved it, Ocean Shores Washington Airport bisected the golf course. Took off from there once, imagining the sound of an errant drive wacking the prop.
