Well done Keechbert. Those island beach airports have less trees so it must have been easy approaches for you!

Well, I'm sure Cuba has me on their most wanted list now. Horrible landing in MUCM. Weather showed 10 miles vis when I took off, but shortly before landing, low clouds rolled in and drop vis to about 3 miles.
But I guess a win is a win, so Thank you Roy. Drew, palm trees are tougher than our Carolina Pines. My bird's going to be in the shop for a while.

Congrats David, I am on my third leg to complete this accomplishment. Good job as I know there are exciting takeoffs and approaches while flying with real-world weather. Great job! I hope to join the ranks soon.
