Picture of the Day: Short final into St. Barths
Chris Unrau submitted this photo and note: “I recently had the privilege of fulfilling a dream come true — I earned my certification to land in St. Barths in my Cessna T210N, C-GPLS. The training consists of two hours of ground instruction followed by two training flights with 10 landings required on Runway 10, missed approaches to both runways, and a landing on Runway 28. It was a surreal experience to do this training into such an iconic airport. It’s a feast for all the aviation senses whether you’re the captain, the passenger, or spotting from the ground.”
