Last set for this month saw 2 contrasting flights:
TD4901 is the Virgin Islands morning mail run:
unloading at Beef Island TUPJ

Hunt the runway at Anegada

St Thomas was IFR on my return

But I found the runway in the rain (I'm high, aiming for a long touchdown to minimise runway occupancy - that's my story and I'm sticking to it!
)
