Flying at Montesinho Natural Park (Bragança) during a four day cross-country photo trip, we reach the Spanish border, outlined by the windmills... a truly fantastic sight! Until now, it's been the only time that i've flown in a snowy environment.

Is there a better way to return home after spending the weekend in an aviation safety forum in central Portugal than flying in formation for some sunset pictures?... In the back there's Tagus River and it's last two corners before reaching Lisbon, where it meets with the Atlantic Ocean.

Great display during Portugal Airshow! This airplane is special to me, since it's my uncle's airplane and i've done some of my most spectacular flights inside this Pioneer!

Introducing the: APAU Tejo Tour! An event that will be held from 27/03/09 until 29/03/09, starting at LPCB (Castelo Branco) and ending at LPCS (Cascais, Tires)... always following the Tejo River's path. It will pass trough some historic cities of Portugal, and the best of all, is that the Tour can be followed by car, so that you don't miss none of the dozens of Ultralights! APAU also managed to get spotters credencials for the places were it will land during the tour. In this particular photo, we can see the area were the waters from the Tejo River and the ones from the Atlantic Ocean join, the city of Lisbon on the top left shore of the River, the city of Costa da Caparica on the top right, the Bugio Fortification in the middle of the water on the right, the São Julião Fortification just above the wingtip in the middle, the start of the Carcavelos Beach on the bottom left and between Lisbon and Carcavelos Beach, we have the Marginal: a fantastic road on the shore linking Lisbon-Carcavelos-Cascais that can be done by foot, bike, car or train! And what does this photo has in common with the APAU Tejo Tour? It's the view that you get when approaching the runway 35 at LPCS, the last point of the tour!

In this particular photo, we can see the River Tejo (photo facing North), the LPSR (Santarém) airstrip and the fantastic city of Santarém, that lays on a hill!
