Landing on the airport of Tenerife South. Tenerife is one of the Canary Islands, situated west of Africa. It is dominated by the big volcano 'Teide'.
Landings can be interesting here, the island is situated downwind of the dominant trade winds so windshears frequently occur. Sometimes the wind can shift from tailwind to headwind in seconds, even during the flare.
My apologies for the bad image quality of the shots out of the side window. My main camera for those shots had not charged correctly, so I had to use a backup camera I never used before. This camera is sold as a 4K camera and in deed exports 4K resolution, but it uses some form of horrible upscaling. Next time I hope my main camera will have power!
