Ok, I will also share my pictures with you all - simply to show off what you were missing.
For this flight I decided to take the Beautiful Aeroworx Beechcraft B200 Super King Air and not the QKodiak. Ok, here you can see me taxiing to the active runway at TJBQ passing by Stefaan and Vic. Pär took off from the water outside the airport, but today he was also flying the QKodiak.
Here you can see me overtaking Stefaan en-route to Dorado (DDP), whilst Vic and Pär are flying in front of us.
Well, everybody seems to be preparing for an approach to TJIG, but I stayed high as I was planning for an approach to TJSJ.
Speaking of flying high... during this approach to TJSJ I was too low almost all the time.
After a quick touch and go I was airborne again, but unfortunately I hadn't have the time to look around at this great scenery
Climbing to 4500 feet to clear the terrain en-route to Roosevelt Roads.
There it is now, and it is time to descend rapidly.
I managed to get down early enough, but unfortunately I was not able to drop off the speed and so I had to go around and make a right downwind for a second approach.
Then followed a short flight over to St Thomas (TIST) to which I am on (very) short final right now.
Next airport for me was TISX (St Croix).
Whilst I am about to touchdown on RWY 10 you can see Stefaan in the background doing his downwind leg for the approach.
Now you can see Stefaan on final to RWY 10, followed by Vic.
Now we are en-route to Ponce and again back to Puerto Rico.
After the touch and go at Ponce I am climbing to 4500 feet again to clear the terrain and we encountered some clouds...
To be continued in the next reply...
