Kingston ... the "Heartbeat of Jamaica"

WHAT ?! - she comes from Kingston ! ;)

Tomorrow, Tuesday, 30 Nov, at 1930Z we continue our journey from Princess Juliana (TNCM) to Norman Manley (MKJP).
(Norman Washington Manley was a Jamaican statesman. A Rhodes Scholar, Manley became one of Jamaica's leading lawyers in the 1920s. With his cousin, Alexander Bustamante, Manley was an advocate of the universal suffrage that was granted the colony in 1944.
He founded the left-wing People's National Party which later was tied to the Trade Union Congress and the National Workers Union, together with Bustamante, in 1938, and led it in every election from 1944 to 1967. Their efforts resulted in the New Constitution of 1944, granting full adult suffrage. He served as the colony's Chief Minister from 1955 to 1959, and as Premier from 1959 to 1962. He was a proponent of the island's participation in the Federation of the West Indies but bowed to pressure to hold a referendum in 1961 which resulted in Jamaica withdrawing from the union.}

Scenery, well....goooooogle doesn't hurt :lol:
 
Tomasz, maybe we should change it for Wednesday, to make it easier for you to fly with us? Let's wait for other pilots to respond.
 
Ok, Norbert ;)
Rafi, I didn't say "default" - for nice scenery ask google, otherwise ask me :rofl:
...and ahead of your questions: her name is Carolyn Yapp (miss Jamaica 09) 8)
 
It looks like i MAY be able to fly this round. But i will be in school up to 1800Z so that will be short backup.
Luckly i'm bit closer to destination - i'm on TJSJ, with around 3h flightplan for that route. L-100 :)

Only problem is that i cant upload pireps via xacars because it tells me that it cant find booking for my flightnumber... :|
 
This is better for celebrating bob team :)
