VH-KDK Posted October 18, 2016 Share Posted October 18, 2016 The final part of my Ruhr flight takes us to the Industrial Heart of Germany. 1. Leaving Hagen Hof Wahl in some promising weather. 2. Picking up the Ruhr again at Volmarstein. 3. Approaching Hessingen. 4. The treatment works at Hinsel. 5. Baldeneysee is the name given to the lake formed by a weir just down the river. 6. The large building is a conference centre called Essen Messe. 7. Every time I fly here I get buzzed by a plane coming or leaving Dusseldorf Airport. 8. Bruckenstimmung carries the A52 over the Ruhr. Essen Mulheim Airport with it's zeppelin hangar can be seen. 9. The docks at Ruhrort and the Thyssen Krupp Steelworks stand out in this view. 10. A serious junction as Duissern 11. At Duisberg with the Rhine in sight. 12. The Ruhr flows into the Rhine at Homberg. That is the end of this flight and I hope you enjoyed looking.
