Hello IFC,
Yesterday I decided to fly from El Calafate in southern Argentina to Ushuaia, famous for being a base in the Falklands War. @Suhas you might recognise the name from the Top Gear Patagonia special.

I know this is one of @Charlieab29 and @Igor_M’s favourite routes to fly and after flying it I most certainly see why! Such a unique route with absolutely stunning scenery.

El Calafate has always been a favorite of mine! And yes, that Top Gear Special was a fun one, the specials were always the best. I also went out for some shots there in January.
