kev4242 Posted February 18, 2020 Share Posted February 18, 2020 Our second leg of the Los Angeles to Las Vegas tour, sees us depart Catalina and track the coast to San Diego and land at Brownfield Municipal Airport. After a buffalo burger and a stroll around Avalon, we taxi out to runway 22. Picking up the coast and heading south. We can see John Wayne in the distance and Newport Bay harbor off our left wing. Passing the San Onofre nuclear power plant (now decommissioned) and making sure we stay clear of the restricted airspace close to Camp Pendleton, one of the largest Marine Corps bases in the US. Preparing to navigate over San Diego. To the left we can see the Torey Pines golf course perched on the cliff tops. Overflying San Diego international and keeping to the right of the San Diego Bay in the VFR corridor. Stunning scenery from ORBX here. Passing the Coronado Bridge and planning the path and descent to Brownfield. Setting up on finals to runway 26R with a lot less wind to contend with compared to Catalina. Shutdown and the leg complete. Our next leg will see us begin to track east over the picturesque mountains to the east of San Diego before landing at an airport below sea level. Hope you enjoyed the images. Thanks for the comments on leg 1. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
