Up In The Air .... Part 57

And here I am Up In The Air, onboard Selçuklu, Turkish Airlines' Airbus A330 operating as TK 618 today, from Casablanca !

A smooth liftoff from Casablanca powered by the two Rolls Royce Trent 600 engines...

The shadows of clouds on the ground are amazing!

Indeed this trip to Morocco will remain a memorable one for years to come... 

Setting course for Istanbul, heading towards Algerian airspace...

And soon we are over the desert...

The rugged hills of the Algerian Sahara Desert...

The flight plan consciously avoids overflying Libya...

We will fly over the city of Tunis (known for the world famous ruins of Carthage) and Sicily before the approach into Istanbul from the Balkans...

What a shot!

The glow of dusk filters into the cabin...

Approaching Sicily...

The approach into Istanbul...

Imagine the power packed inside this engine!

On finals...

Moments to touchdown...
