DAY 5, LEG 22 - Gibraltar to Porto
From Gibraltar we head to Porto in north-western Portugal. Porto is the second largest city in Portugal located on the River Douro and perhaps most well-known for producing Port, the fortified wine.
View of the aircraft from the Rock of Gibraltar.
Looking back over the Strait of Gibraltar routing towards Seville.
Passing two easyJet aircraft routing from Faro on the south coast of Portugal back to the UK.
Cloud beginning to clear with Lisbon now in view on the horizon.
Following the River Douro while being vectored for an approach onto Runway 35 at Porto. We are number 2 to another Beech 1900D from Barcelona.
Left it a bit tight in behind the proceeding aircraft so going around from this approach!
The River Douro again on a left base for another approach.
The Beech 1900D we went around for waiting to cross the active runway as we backtrack after landing.
