He flew west of Vigo at 15.15 and stopped for the night in woods north of A Igrexa t 15.51. Next day, 6th, he flew over the border into Portugal at 07.32 and at 11.40 was SW of Barcelos heading SSE, then S.

On 7th e remained along the river until 11am and then flew on south being east of Santiago do Cacens at 3.44pm and stopped in woods at Odemira at 6pm.
