February 13, 20242 yr Hi pilots Did one of my most memorable flights yesterday. My moroccan wife just told me "you should try to fly south of Agadir to Laayoune, you should see some spectacular landscapes". I decided to push on to Dakhla thanks to the remarkable freeware. As I don't have much time to fly, it was also my test flight for the updated ATR, nvidia color filters and DynamicLod. The landscapes between canyons, cliffs and craters made me feel like Matt Damon in The Martian. Unfortunately for my wife I am still not Matt Damon, but I sure was a happy pilot when I landed in Dakhla. Edited February 13, 20242 yr by RockOla
February 14, 20242 yr Great exploratory suggestion, trip, and pictures, with this very nice a/c....ocean to the north and the great Sahara deserts to the south...! I was myself (virtually) snooping around that part of the world recently...trying to trace the source of the (Tunisian) Olive Oil spotted on the Kitchen table ...🙂 ...very interesting terrain topography indeed...I went west as far as Algeria border, and you're across Algeria in Morocco...I believe you're very near the Atlas Mountains of Morocco... Thanks for sharing...!
February 14, 20242 yr Author Thanks for taking the time to comment. The haut (high) Atlas ends near Agadir so when you go South you are over the anti Atlas and then the plains that stretch to the Sahara. Lots of interesting landscapes here, and surprisingly good photo coverage : a bit of color variations around Laayoune but quite pleasant overall. The ATR, while far from perfect, allows you to admire the landscape from a reasonable altitude (below FL200).
