Mist Approach Of DC-8-71 At Pinlifter's Request

Featured Replies

Shalom and greetings all my pals,

 

Pinlifter the forum member of forums of Avsim had requested for any screenshots of DC-8-71s or -72s or 73s as long as their engines are same.

Presenting Douglas DC-8-71F's mist approach to runway 05 of MMCZ Cozumel International Airport located at the Caribbean coast near Cancún in the island of Cozumel, Quintana Roo, Mexico

MMCZ APP Controller:  Clear for approach to runway 11

Me:  Negative to runway 11   My DC-8-71F is too long and cannot make backtracking on runway 11.  Requesting approach to runway 05 which has exits without need for backtracking.

MMCZ APP Controller:  Roger  You are authorized to change direction to head to approach runway 05.

Me:  Affirm to clearance for approach to runway 05

On final approach to runway 05
