Ribeirão Preto Skyline
The dense high-rise district of Ribeirão Preto appears clearly as the plane banks for landing.
Choose the right side for morning flights to avoid direct solar glare. This side is consistently better for the final approach into RAO, as the flight path typically circles the city from the east.
