Stillwater Posted May 21, 2021 Share Posted May 21, 2021 Climbing out of Calvi in my rediscovered favourite prop plane... ... and over the rugged mountains of the island. The Lac de Calacuccia can be seen here, but some details are missing - like the beautiful city of Corte. Soon we descend to the sunny west coast... ... near the military airbase of Sulinzara. Some kilometres further south the long beach of Olmucciu awaits, where we have spent some holidays. If you head up the Cavu river you find beautiful gorges and parks for Abseiling and ziplining. The bay of Porto Vecchio, the "metropole" of the southeast of Corse. There should be a rock with a castle between Bonifacio bay and the sea. Just a few minutes south we already meet Sardinia, here at the millionaires coast of Porto Cervo. Descending over the Golfo Aranci... ... into Olbia. The PAPIs of runway 23 show all red, in contrast to the ILS (and the pilot´s feeling). Busy times at the commercial part of the airport... ... and the GA area is crowded as well.

Indeed I have many RL pictures from these places, but stored on DVDs and I am too lazy to get them out. You have to travel these places in your next world tour, I am sorry...
