🇦🇷 Buenos Aires, Argentina
Buenos Aires is the capital of Argentina. Real-Earth coordinates -34.611°, -58.433°, population 12,795,000. The busiest sky in the country — monuments to circle, other pilots in the air and the city's own tower frequency on the radio. Skydex flies the real Earth here — the elevation, coastline and city layout under the aircraft come from the same data the map does, and the sky is shared with everyone else flying it.
