Nice flight to Gibraltar! I forgot to take pictures though until after we had landed.

If it wasn't the FSX saying it had a problem and then it shuts down, it was the darn weather, After one power outages I was doing OK, and then bingo it shut down again, and this time I couldn't logon to the Multi-player. Well anyway, I did the flight today, and also did some sight seeing. Hehe, if you look close at one of the pictures that show the side of that Fort looking place you will see me plane, boy, does it looks small next to that building. I sure hope the next flight FSX and the weather stays COOL, at least until I finish the flight.
 
Wasn't enough room in the Waco for the BBQ grill and other necessities.

We made it to Madrid albeit with a wee bit of corrugation envy. Still it was a great flight as usual!

Nice flight from Madrid. MM had a local tour group set us up on the outbound leg. Scored a goal flying through the Gate of Europe towers.

Note: At one point had three Taco Waco's buzzing about. Strange stuff that.

Well, I don't think my landing at Salamanca was bad enough to get Iberia kicked out of there, but ya never know. We did pass over this lil ol' monastery on the way there from Madrid though...

We arrived at Leon last night. Great flight as usual. The more I fly the "Tante Ju", the better I like it. I tried it several years ago in FS9 and didn't really care for it then, but the FSX conversion has really made it a whole new aircraft out of it.

Did a little trading around and ended up with a Maule. Seems to be a nice enough aircraft although a bit modern for my tastes....

Great flight along the coast to Pamplona. We just missed the running of the bulls.

Downtown area on final...

Detoured to LESU on our way to Catalonia, Spain. Was a bit tricky with the cloud cover on the way in and out.

Note: Had a local company ferry the Ercoupe ahead and rented a Cessna for the mountain flights.

We flew down the Costa Brava, took a quick tour of Barcelona's highlights, and then landed at busy El Prat (LEBL). The first Kodak shows Gaudi's Sagrada Familia with the Torre Agbar in the background. The second shows Willy, srgalahad and MM trying to look inconspicuous at an international airport.

Hey There!Well, caught up with Flight 19 at LESB and flew with them to LELL after some major problems with FSX. Hehe, was so glad to be back flying again I forgot to setup the control unit! Oops!
 
Inquisition? :dizzy: You are flying around the iberian peninsula and wrote as a title of the thread 'spanish inquisition' is weird.

Nice pics!
