NASA Madrid Deep Space Communications Complex
Madrid, Spain
The Madrid complex is part of a global network that has two other centers in Canberra, Australia and in Goldstone, California, USA. The geographical location of these, approximately 120 degrees apart in length, has been chosen to allow vehicles to maintain contact with a ground station, regardless of the daily movement of the Earth’s rotation.
The network is internationally known as DSN, Deep Space Network, and it is directed and managed by JPL, Jet Propulsion Laboratory, in Pasadena, California. It currently constitutes the biggest and more sensitive telecommunications system for scientific applications in the world.
Nearest Airport: LECU Cuatro Viento Airport
To find the complex:
Fly Runway 27 heading, after clear of field Hdg 280 should about do it. Complex is approximately 39km.
Hope you enjoy!
Peace and Joy,
Christopher
PS: if you are using We Love VFR, have this scenery load after that in order for my exclusion rectangles to replace their telescopes.
Thank you!

I redid the exclusion rectangles to take care of duplicate telescopes. Be sure that your content.xml is recreated in your local>Microsoft Flight Simulator>packages folder as well.

Oops...forgot the "-". You'd think a professional Cartographer would be sensitive to geodetic accuracy! LOL. Thanks
