A journey from the skies

Flying over Salta in a Cessna 182

The flight takes place on a clear autumn afternoon in Salta. The season is optimal after the summer rains: the dust in the environment is significantly reduced and the purity of the air of northwestern Argentina is perceived. There is no better time in the year for the sky to amplify the radiance and beauty of the landscapes.

The flight over the Cabra Corral dam took 75-minute.

The gentle take-off contrasted with the roar of the single-engine of the Charlie Zulu Eco, the star of the adventure, a white Cessna 182. Its pink interior invites you to settle in for the best view from the air.

The city of Salta in its almost complete extension is the first image, since as soon as you ascend the route to the south forces you to cross it. The valley with its grid of somewhat untidy roads, the green of the hills that escort it, in the background the attentive foothills, all a marvel!

The pilot's relationship with his C182 is perceived and enjoyed as much as the trip. Mateo tells you his story while he guides your inexperienced gaze so as not to miss any detail of what is going on down there. The passing villages, the huge puddle of the Cabra Corral dam and, of course, the El Crestón hill in the background, a formation -at 3370 meters above sea level- with a clear shape of a cock's crest of a particular beauty.

The overflight with @matemois_c182 is complete, postcards in its maximum amplitude, carefully regulated maneuvers and an end, at sunset, as dazzling as the ascent.
