Re: St. Barthelemy
We should have a GFI there. TJSJ would be a good departure point. Mr. Pierce???

Re: St. Barthelemy
Watched that also and my home city airport started the show at #10, KSAN, San diego. A side note to that, I was on one of the fire department truck companies which responded to the PSA crash they detailed on the show. It was messy.

Nice Shots!
The air up there in the clouds is very pure and fine, bracing and delicious. And why shouldn't it be?--it is the same the angels breathe.
