FLIGHT DETAILS

The Community Fly-In Friday World Tour continues!

This week, we’re taking a siesta in beautiful Spain! :es:

Our flight starts where we left off last time at LESU, just across the Spanish border from Andorra, and then we’ll head southbound for a touch & go at Barcelona, one of the most picturesque cities in the world (particularly when seen from the air). From Barcelona, we will then turn on a generally westerly heading as we make our way to the capital city of Madrid.

Be sure to install the free World Update VIII: Iberia from the in-sim Marketplace for the best experience during this flight.

Thanks for another great event! I took off a few minutes later than most of the crew, but managed to catch up with the pack in Barcelona. I chose the P-40F this time (couldn’t resist the purchase because of the sale :sweat_smile:). Spain looks fantastic from the air with all the farmlands, plains, hills and mountains changing constantly.
