Flying over Riyadh, Saudi Arabia

Flying over Riyadh in Saudi Arabia, something not a lot of people get to do as the air space is very restrictive. I wanted to share a video of what it looks like during one of the many rescue missions I went to.

The last census was done in Riyadh in 2010 and the population at the time was just over 6.5 million (as per worldpopulationreview.com) and Riyadh covers an area of 1,798 km². Here is the video https://youtu.be/wQWeyfh6OB4

Hi @TheEagleEye ,

This must be great to fly over Riyadh!

Maybe you would want to share with us more of your travel experiences in the other places that you’ve visited in SA. I’m looking forward to see your photos from Jeddah, too.

Thank you for sharing, @TheEagleEye . Such views always lead me to one question: If you had to choose, what would it be? Diving deep or flying high? I’m expecting an interesting argumentation of someone that went on many rescue missions, like you.
