        <description><![CDATA[<p>Some information for Flight Night.</p><p><a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Angel_Falls#cite_note-Stavro-15" rel="nofollow noreferrer ugc">https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Angel_Falls#cite_note-Stavro-15</a></p><p>It is the world's tallest uninterrupted waterfall, with a height of 3,212 ft, and a plunge of 2,648 ft. The waterfall drops over the edge of the Auyán-tepui mountain in the Canaima National Park. It is believed that the first Westerner to see the waterfall was the Spanish explorer Fèlix Cardona in 1927.</p><p>Unknown to the outside world until American aviator Jimmie Angel, following directions given by Cardona, flew over them on 16 November 1933 while he was searching for a valuable ore bed. </p><p>Returning on 9 October 1937, Angel tried to land his Flamingo monoplane "El Río Caroní" atop Auyán-tepui, but the plane was damaged when the wheels sank into the marshy ground. Angel and his three companions, including his wife Marie, were forced to descend the tepui on foot. It took them 11 days to make their way back to civilization by the gradually sloping back side, as news of their adventure spread  the waterfall was named Angel Falls in his honour.</p><p>Angel's plane remained on top of the tepui for 33 years before being lifted out by helicopter. It was restored at the Aviation Museum in Maracay, Venezuela and now sits outdoors on the front of the airport at Ciudad Bolívar in Venezuela.</p><div>

<p>In keeping with his wishes, his wife, his two sons and two of his friends scattered his ashes over Angel Falls on July 2, 1960, four years after his death.</p>]]>

        <description><![CDATA[<p>I noticed there seems to be a great lack of Airports marked on the FlightGear server map of Russia. From Moscow on the left to right side of the country there is a line, North of which there are no Airfields marked. So took off from the Kuznetsov in a Gr9 and buzzed Murmansk. However took of from EFSO (Finland) heading for ULMM (Murmansk) not long after crossing border, lost terrain following  (no terrain visible) pressed on, close to Murmansk still no Terrain! Anyone know if Terrasync restricted in Russia? Oh maybe it was my aircraft they did'nt like....lol</p><div>
