I am inviting those who are able to join us on this flight to Central America, which always is, FUN. We have finished the first leg earlier, KMIA-TNCM and as always, it was great. Remember, the MORE the MERRIER!! Next leg will be on 3rd of October 2009. Flight information available upon request, just drop me a PM.

 

See you there!

Another great Central America - Caribbean flights, finished! We departed Princess Juliana International at about 0130z, thanks for the great experience with the aid of TNCM Tower. A friend of mine surprisingly sent me a PM, gave me advice on what to expect at MHTG, which was a really insane thing to do, land a 747-400 there. I started getting nervous as I get near that small airport, with the mountainous surrounding which made it extra hard to land on. But after a really slow approach to minimums, Autobrakes to 4,I was able to land!! It was a hair-raising approach to be honest with..

 

After that, we took a 1 hour break. Then we've decided to fly up to MYNN as our final destination for the day. With a great scenery by ImagineSim and great island, we had a really great experience today. We have also decided to do this more often, we are going to plan different flights as long as we have the time and day to fly it. We will be traveling around the world and visit exotic places with interesting approach procedures, we're done with MHTG, next to our list is Kai Tak. We will be ferrying our plane from KMIA to somewhere in Asia any time this week or so...

 

Screenshots to follow!

Sounds like very nice 747 routes, you make me want to fly them BADLY. If you have anything during a weekend, or maybe earlier than very late here, I would try to join you.

 

Happy flying.

I will be happy to have you join us, Jody. We are going to fly out our 747 today to Washington Dulles, but it would be night time for you, probably midnight. We will depart Bahamas today at 0515z for Washington. But since you've informed me about your interest, we will plan our next flight that will suit your time.

 

Details will be posted later on a new thread!

 

Note: Here are the screenshots from our recent flight, MHTG-MYNN.
