Islands of the western Mediterranean, Canary islands and Madeira

Islands of the western Mediterranean, Canary islands and Madeira

 

I set off for this first official part of the expedition "European Islands from the Skies" on 22 April 2014. The flight took me over the islands of Elba, Corsica, Sardinia, Menorca, Mallorca, Ibiza, Lanzarote, Gran Canaria, Palma, Tenerife, Madeira, Porto Santo and Ile d’Yeux. During this trip I also landed in the Spanish enclave of Mellila in northern Africa and flew over the Strait of Gibraltar as well as the Landing Beaches of Normandy.

 

In addition to the many photos and video hours we had, we made a special video entitled "70th Anniversary of D-Day" which can be seen on this website in the History section.

8.9.2014 European Islands from the skies - Landing at Příbram

This first part of the expedition "European Islands from the Skies" was the one most celebrated - there were quite a few people at the departure, several journalists and Portuguese TV during the course of the journey and several aircraft as well as quite a few friends on my return. The video here shows my arrival at Příbram airport after the flight to the Canary islands and Madeira which took over 50 flight hours. more

During the first part of the expedition "European Islands from the Skies" we did not yet have such professional video making capability as we developed later on, so there are no videos for each day of the journey. Instead we made one video comprising short excerpts of each day of the journey. I would now like to show more of the 50 hours or so of video footage made during this trip, and  hope to be able to do so . Until then please enjoy this video. more
