Friday April 15th (Thursday 14th) Vuelta a España - Leg 3

Post by ianfisher 101 »

Please note this flight will take place on Thursday 14th April. 1900z

So continuing along the Atlantic coast of Spain today we reach the North West tip of the country. We fly along the coast for a few miles before heading inland and into the mountains for the final time for a while. Known as 'Green Spain', the regions of Asturias and Galicia (as well as parts of Castilla y Leon) are very, very different from the rest of Spain. Enjoy the fabulous green countryside - it's everywhere. Have your ideas dispelled of what Spain looks like as you are surrounded by rolling hills and green pastures. Visit the Cathedral in Santiago de Compostela, drink Sidra (Spanish cider) in Oviedo (on the Boulevard of Cider) Visit the end of the world in Fisterra. Fisterra was the most-western point of the Roman Empire and it was believed that the sun was extinguished each night as it set in the sea. The awful weather there really adds to the feeling that you've reached the end of the planet! Eat Pulpo a la Gallega, boiled octopus with paprika, at a restaurant in A Coruña or Santiago de Compostela. It may sound gross, and it certainly isn't to everyone's taste, but it is a quintessential part of Galician cuisine and a lot of people can't get enough of it. In the city of Santiago de Compostela, the cathedral stands proud and marks the final destination of the walk of pilgrims trekking the Camino de Santiago, starting in the Pyrenees, 500 miles away. Travellers can decide of course to join the route at certain points in between, depending on how far they want to walk and how much they want to see. The Santiago de Compostela Cathedral itself stands in an urban plaza that bustles with life and is considered one of Spain’s national treasures and well worth a visit.

Todays leg is only 130nm so it's Cub time once again. You might not want to take your front seat passenger with you as some of the terrain in the first part of the flight is challenging and you'll need all the power you can get.

Its OK to take a passenger if you wish. The terrain is not too bad especially if you have that power mod in the cfg changed.

When we reach the airport it's OK to land for those that wish to do so, however the flight will continue to overfly the airport and do a circuit of the city to check out the Cathedral and other landmarks. (There will be a fly under bridge involved)
