Additional airport & field information

Posted on April 25, 2012 by admin

There is important information for the airports and fields that is not displayed in the table. For some airports I will create a dedicated page with additional information displayed. The format is not written in stone yet, but an example of such additional information is the Rio Dulce page. More information will be added over time. What do you think?

A collegue of mine has lost his one-year old daughter Caroline to cancer on Thursday and it impacts me profoundly. My thoughts go out to him and his family!

Sunday morning

Posted on March 19, 2012 by admin

Sunrise in the morning from the Guatemala airport. This looked very promising even if Rio Dulce’s web cam showed overcast and light rain.



Just before Zacapa the view confirmed that the web cam wouldn’t lie. A nice view from here, but no good news for the plan to fly to Rio Dulce.

Changing plans… the new destination would be Coban. On the way we would spot a couple of runways. The runway Trece Aguas was quite a sight. This uphill runway must be quite a thrill for landing…. Maybe another day / decade :).Next way point Lankin, but because if a low cloud cover, we couldn’t spot Semuc Champey. From there to Coban which also is a uphill runway, but doesn’t compare to Trece Aguas.Taking a last look before taking off downhill.Some more nice views on the way back from Coban to Guatemala.The vulcanos on the horizon showing the way back to Guatemala city.
