🇧🇴 La Paz, Bolivia
La Paz is the capital of Bolivia. Real-Earth coordinates -16.496°, -68.152°, population 1,590,000. 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.
