Great write up.
Brings back memories of when I was flying out of Bogota on a wet lease.
Try being an Avianca Captain and not speaking spanish...lots of smiling and nodding
That was a month of HARD time. No flight is easy around there.
Only two of our 757s can operate in and out of those airports.
Quito was the highest!!
Caution!!! controllers will clear you to descend into a mountain down there......be careful.
Makes you appreciate how good our US system is...
Good luck,
Mark.
Good words, Mark. I think the key is that we are basically going to fly our flight plan, transition into an ariival, and directly into a published approach. There isn't enough traffic (yet) to start getting vectors... The real problems start when the jet isn't 100% - that's where Kevin comes in.
