Grenadines Leg Four

Leg four is TVSU (Union) to TGPZ (Carriacou). Another short hop.

Power coming up at TVSU....


After take off was a climbing right turn out over Palm Island heading south. Towards the west side of Carriacou Island where TGPZ is located.


Palm Island



TGPZ has a 2'600ft runway with a road going through the middle of it. No cars today as I repeated my intentions on the unicom.

Short Final TGPZ



All along the routes today Fly Tampa has places AI ships and sail boats moving around, adding to the immersion. I found the autogen to be lacking though.

TGPZ ramp area.



This leg was a short 10 minute hop. The next leg south east back to TTCP (Crown Point) is a little over an hour with the head winds. And dusk is upon us too...

Not when I'm behing the yoke Onur!

I seen a video from St.Barts and a small twin crashes off the end of the runway onto the beach. And a big ass fire truck, like the one pictured here, comes after it.....
