In this flight you will start from MedellinĀ“s international airport, fly over the beautiful "Guatape" Lagoon (famous for its rock formation in the middle of the dam), then head south-east to have a look at the mysterious "guatavita lake" were it is believed tons of gold is buried in the bottom. During this flight you will be aware of the different mountain formations, valleys and different heights across this trip. Therefore, try to maintain a save altitude (i was at 17.000 feets) otherwise you will end up in the mountains! ;-). You will then fly towards Bogota main VOR in order to catch the ILS for rwy 13R from "el dorado international airport". Watch your altitude since this airport is 8.360 feets!

My recommendations for the trip:
- let your drone camera constantly fly some meters above the ground so you enjoy the nice scenery!
- most of the time i was following the navigation with the Beachcraft king air 350. Only on the main locations i switched to HDG mode in order to fly freely around the lakes and then i would engage again the GPS.

here some links about the two main attractions in this flight:
