Pt. 2 is here

Day 17.
Well; we replaced the needle valve and put the machine back together. After run-testing; the FBO's flight mechanic certified the engine airworthy again; so we threw out stuff aboard and took off at 4:00. We're more than close enough to Miami - you can practically see it from here - to bypass it and head right on to Cuba.

Takeoff from Palm Beach Co.


Miami International from the air.



Soon, we left the mainland behind; the green of the Atlantic slowly changing to the sapphire blue of the Caribbean.

Goodbye, North America!



As I reached Cuba; I turned east along the coast; my ultimate destination Las Tunas.

Whoa!!!

An emergency landing and then landing in Cuba.

Vaya Con Dios Staiduk!  Your Adventure es muy bueno!

Great shots and story! Can't wait for the next leg!

Oh; picky picky......

Wait a minute!  I thought Cuba was considered part of Central America!  :P

Cuba is part of the Carribean, but the Carribean, Cental America, the U.S and Canada is all part of N. America  8)

Oh yeah...

Nice one again Staiduck!

Seems that DC-3 fits right into Cuba... Love the scenery!

Day 18

Finally! A day with no turbulence!
Well; there was a bit, but easily and comfortably dealt with. Don't get me wrong; this big beast can easily handle whatever the atmosphere wants to throw at it; but my wrist is starting to get sore.
