Crossing the Sahara desert

Featured Replies

It’s hot down there, so I fly fast 😄

I take off in Alexandria, Egypt and fly across the Sahara desert to Belkebir in Marocco. In order to cover the distance, I use additional tanks under the wings.

Wonderful visit and pictures from the big Desert...!

Like your transportation too...and the fact that with the additional fuel tanks, you're ready to go far and fast ...🙂...
