The flight to Uyuni

A clean start with a local GPU. Very clear instructions form the tower. The only runway used is the downslope one.

We are the first to launch.

Man, the speed climb slowly to the rotation speed. I had the Jepp Apps on my knee looking at the progress of the roll.

We added a little speed to the V1 and we were airborne where expected with a good climb rate even with a ISA at 14 degree......


What a sight


A very Happy Nori-san


Not many airport in the urea


We are over the Alti-Plano

 
First sight of some salt flats

Here we are


What a sight and you do need some sunglasses


Setting up for the approach

 
Long final

Short Final

 

Here we are the newest airport of Bolivia with the second longest runway



A happy pilot




We have landed



Yes this is the right place


I forgot to mention that Nori-san never miss an opportunity for a  massage, this one was in the La Paz terminal


Nice looking and happy birds
