Welcome aboard for Leg 4 of MEBAR 2015. We fly from Palonegro Intl (SKBG), Bucaramanga, to San Bernardo (SKMP), Mompos - a distance of around 240 nm. 

 

This Leg is 'blind', which adds to the excitement! Here's the Flight Plan in Plan-G (Thanks Tim):

 Nice one Dai I enjoyed viewing it.

 

You must join in the ATWC and expand your story telling skills, we miss them!

Thanks, Joe - one last Leg to report...

Thinking about "The Hump" for ATWC SiX - maybe I'll be lucky?

Take it easy - Dai.
