Flyzolo Team - Day 144
Yesterday, Zara and Sharky 🦈 ✈️ landed in #Alexandria, #Egypt and with this stop touched down on the 5th and final continent of the #journey: Africa 🌎.. It was supposed to be a technical stop, but - no surprise - the day did not go according to plan (again) 😅. So Zara spent the night in th...

Terrain changed a lot throughout, from dunes to rocks and villages/cities. Flying was also really nice as there are usually no clouds whatsoever and it was extremely smooth (in the morning).

Arrived in Dubai!

A couple of days ago I had to land in Al Ain after an 8 hour flight because the wind at Al Maktoum (my original destination) was gusting at 45 knots. Even the wind at Al Ain was pretty strong and I had to make sure I taxied quite slowly to avoid taking off again.

Tomorrow I’m leaving for Saudi ...
