On final runway approach to runway 09 visible below left wing

















Seconds before touchdown



TOUCHDOWN





Braking down deeply



Remember that the best way to spot and line up for runway approach is to use cruise ship as clue or otherwise if the cruise ship is not there, you will have tough time finding runway!!



Thank you for viewing.  Stay tuned for next exciting flight!!
