Bilbao

Spain that is, not Baggins. A cursory flight in a local Cub. I'll check out all the Orbx goodness in a future helo flight. -- Bob

Impressive airport buildings. This town likes its funky architecture.

The promise of interesting cliffs and bays inspire me to follow the coast.

Lovely shots Bob. And the scenery of the Basque is very accurate, which one is it?

 

Best wishes.

Pretty nice looking scenery and aircraft, Bob! ;) One thing missing, though.....where's that "ol' Bilbao moon"?

I'm sitting on it. :)

Thanks all. Watch for a more detailed flight soon. -- Bob

Orbx, my friend.

 

Well, I've never been to Spain

But I kinda like the music

Say the ladies are insane there

And they sure know how to use it

Hahaha nice song by the sound of it. I have been to Bilbao (and San Sebastian) many times, including the time when I took a ferry from Southampton, sailed in inclement weather (a force 9 gale to be precise) for 48 hours (that's 12 additional hours of sail because we had to cut into the swell, so it was a zigzag). I was severely sea sick for the full duration and by the time we got there I was in such a state. Surprisingly I was able to drive my car out of the ship and continue with my journey, but had sea legs for the next two weeks.

 

The beauty of that region is amazing. Their cider is also great. I have never flown my FSX aircraft over there, an oversight it seems.

Thanks, but they're not goiters, the are jowls. Gained through age and experience. :p And more than a little bacon. -- Bob
