TJSJ-TFFJ Part Deux

Post by Norberto Rivera »

Only a few takers for tonight's flight. Mr. Wayne Pierce (N322), for a short while Mr. Steve Sondheimer in a shiny new Dash 8 and yours truly. Harold Henderson (AAV580) joined the fun at St. Barts. Without much further adoo here are some pics:

A group shot... kind of... Wayne is on the top right and Harold is now the one digging his way to China. Good fun was had by all!
