December 23, 20223 yr Bitterwasser Lodge & Flying Center is a guest lodge and (gliding) airfield on the edge of the Kalahari region, about 170 kilometers south-southeast of Windhoek (Namibia). The airfield and gliding center are considered one of the best in the world for glider pilots. Numerous world records have been set here due to the good thermal conditions. I have been to both Namibia and the Kalahari and I was always amazed by the change of the landscape below you, when flying in this fantastic part of the world. The best part is, the same experience we can get in MSFS! Accommodation is a bit basic, to say the least And the “runway” is shake, rattle and roll. I think I need to visit a dentist after this Above the Okawango area, which looks from above sooo different from the Namibian desert, even in dry season Thanks for viewing Any attempt to stretch fuel is guaranteed to increase headwinds My specs: AMD Radeon RX6700XT, AMD Ryzen 9 5900X, 32GB RAM, 34" monitor, screen resolution: 2560x1080
