Alex, Jeff is about 1/2 out (plus landing).The Baton is yours at MPTO then, if you want. (I think.) Want to head down the west coast of South America and see the Andes? (Its dark right now...)Mike

[Guest sfoofficer]

Hmmm... nice thought. I was planning due east towards Z09A. I'll take a looksie!Alex

[MM 428]

Alex, going down the west side would be good experience for us all.Try Cali SKCL or Bogota SKBO or maybe Quito Ecuador...?In the end, it is your choice.We're in descent over the Panama Canal.M.

[Guest sfoofficer]

All ready to go. Heading to Carano, approx 1 hour away. Looks like its at the base of the Andes.Safe landing.Alex

I have the baton. ETA - 05:22

Alex,Great news. Just watch out for SKUI. It has VOR. But no runway lights. (It is in the middle of the busy city, so the autogen buildings may show you the way.)Good luck.Mike

#@@$##@$#@#%$!!!! - Crash on landing. Sorry guys.Future reference - SKUI is not a good place to go at night.Alex

[Guest sfoofficer]

I messed it up, so I'm at it again. Baton in hand, same route.Alex

[Guest sfoofficer]

ARGH!!! Not my day. Computer is on the fritz - this is being written from my laptop.Baton is awaiting next carrier at MPTO. Promise to make this up tommorow.Apologies To All,Alex

Cruise planned for 25,500 direct. Connected to BushNet.EDIT: Looking at favorable winds combined with only a one hour flight, I made the call to cruise at 21,500.P-38L

[Guest KChapman]

Baton is free at SKUI. Headwinds much of the way.EDIT: Screenshot verificationhttp://forums.avsim.net/user_files/104773.jpghttp://forums.avsim.net/user_files/104774.jpgFair winds and happy landings to the next airman,Kevin

[Guest KChapman]

Just a hint about SKUI:The runway is 4,599' long and is at +214. Shouldn't be problem to get out at all, but don't linger unnecessarily. There are obstacles to be cleared at each end of the runways.Looking down Rwy 12http://forums.avsim.net/user_files/104775.jpgLooking off the departure end of Rwy 30http://forums.avsim.net/user_files/104776.jpgOn to the next field (SKCO?)...Kevin
