Microlight Video approach, landing and departure at Malaga

As additional information, I found this video with sound at a Microlight pilot's web site. It includes some views of Malaga (city centre and Alcazabra and Gibralfaro arabic fortress and castle at VRP E1) as approaching LEMG from the East along the coast.

I have principally included it here as demonstrates the point from my first post how you might encounter the local controllers switching back and forth between spoken English and Spanish. Also the occassional slight misinterpretation that occurs in translation is demonstrated (i.e. airliner pilot requesting to talk to microlights directly, turn left/right report confused, frequent swapping between full and brief call-sign G-CCAZ/G-AZ)
