Crossing the Sahara desert

Recommended Posts

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.

Great shots from a lot of desert there and a very nice fighter oldtimer, F104 starfighter isn't it? Looks good...
