Can you throw a Javelin over a mountain ?

..you can if it's a Gloster Javelin and you're at the stick.  ;) Here it is, soaring over Spain's highest mountain. Mount Tiede in Tenerife.  (I've been there, it's lovely. )
Coming in from Gran Canaria.

up to the crater rim

And into the volcanic crater that dominates Tenerife on towards Teide's peak.

And finally down the north face

It's on the Avsim site.. divided into three files. (pretty big)
projca_2006_v10_1.zip
projca_2006_v10_2.zip
projca_2006_v10_3.zip

It'll give you the entire Canary Islands in photoreal scenery so good, you'll wonder why it's not payware.  :D

As for the plane I got it from a coverdisk of freeware planes on PC Pilot magazine (UK),, but I believe it's available here  http://www.fs2000.org/last/display_search.asp  (beware, this page takes decades to load  :-[ ) Lots of other good stuff there too. Worth a look, even without the Javelin.

It's Mike Stone's Javelin in the Scheme of Transload Airlines.
