SEATAC 400 Posted August 3, 2013 Report Share Posted August 3, 2013 Continuing my trek through the Caribbean, today's flight takes us from E.T. Joshua Airport in St. Vincent & The Grenadines to Piarco International Airport in Port of Spain, Trinidad. The aircraft for today's flight is the Morane Saulnier MS.760 Paris jet, courtesy of TIm Piglet Conrad. E.T. Joshua Airport is located on the island of St. Vincent. The island was spotted by Christopher Columbus during his third voyage in 1498. Airport scenery is provided courtesy of JL Valladier. Preparing to depart.

SEATAC 400 Posted August 3, 2013 Author Report Share Posted August 3, 2013 Super set! interesting engine config on this one. I like the one showing the bugger' red buttocks. Thanks Dorel, It's an unusal aircraft. Twin engine but very slow to respond to the throttles. Takes quite a while to spool those puppies up. But once they get going she'll hit 351 knots. She's also a bit squirrely in flight and when you drop those flaps a notch or two, the speed will bleed off like crazy. Link to post Share on other sites
