Cayman to Cuba

Recommended Posts

Climbing out over Cayman Island I still wonder about these un-tropical trees, ...

... while the sea looks as expected.

It is just a short hop up to Cuba, where we make landfall near Manzanillo at the Golfo de Guacanayabo.

The Sierra Maestra at the southern coast looks great!

Santiago de Cuba is the biggest city around, ...

... but I could not find out what these platforms are used for.

A close look at the Gran Piedra mountains - maybe a too close look...

... but shortly after we pass Guantanamo Bay NAS.

... and back into the airport, which is big enough to change to a plane of any size.

Love this latest addition to your virtual travels Gerold :) Don't see much sim flying in this region, and I enjoyed the choice of aircraft. 

Cheers!

My pleasure, Landon. Indeed, we rarely see the Caribbean here, not to mention Cuba. But we have to pay tribute to the OpenLC makers and all their efforts - and it is well worth to do so. Some more Art Deco houses and street cruisers and the immersion would be close to our real expectations.

OK, sth different in my destination of today, but we wouldn´t expect precision in a sim there, would we?
