Description:Long haul to make it to the caribbeans for a set of short legs full of fun and nice scenaries, started early in the morning and ended fly at sunset, with very litle visibility not aware TFFA had some trees at the begining of runway 8 that made the aproach a difficult one on a Learjet45, ended up going around the first time with lots of preassure by nature (loosing daylight hence visibility of runway was minimum the second time), no much ilumination on airport neighter, CTR very was nice gave me vectors to visual, a very nice experience, I wish I took pics of landing, but it was too hard to be taking pictures, next time.
