mglan80 Posted July 13, 2018 Share Posted July 13, 2018 I've skipped most of the leg from Gran Canaria to Madrid (prior African leg is here) since it was mostly empty Atlantic. Spain is probably my favorite area of openLC-EU. I love the colors and the landscape of Spain. I've only been once, but I'll be back many times if life allows. Over southern Spain Parked up in Madrid Barajas. After getting into LEMD from the Gran Canaria stretch, the crew and I found a nice place to have a few glasses of Rioja and heaping plates of olives and jamon Iberico. I cannot get enough of that jamon! Despite the late dinner, we were up early for the departure. The route takes us over the Bay of Biscay and Brittany and on into Heathrow. Sadly leaving Spain behind... A bit of Brittany And on into EGGL...with a BA A320 right up my triple tail on final! Thanks for looking and indulging me on my 'round the world.

Captain Lars Posted July 13, 2018 Share Posted July 13, 2018 Another great leg of your tour. Spain is one of my favourite countries, too. Interestingly, the Basque Country in the north looks a lot like the Black Forest. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mglan80 Posted July 14, 2018 Author Share Posted July 14, 2018 Thanks for all the comments! I do love some openLC. It's one of the best products Orbx offers. Great value for money. Wakashi, it's a fun diversion, but you can't let it get in the way of enjoying the sim. If I don't feel like flying a leg, I don't. I started back in January and I'm still not quite halfway! Give it a shot, just maybe in a jet, not a av-gas eating prop-liner chugging along at 180 knots! Cpt. Lars, I'd love to see the Basque Country. I've only spent a few weeks in Madrid and Barcelona, but my wife spent a semester in southern Spain. I find the Moorish architecture fascinating and love the culture, so that's on the list, too. It's just such a vibrant and wonderful place. I still need quite a bit of work on my Spanish - es muy mal! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
