Mollis, Switzerland

5 legs and 17h+ of flight time to return

We started the return with a 0200 arrival at the Caracas Airport to get back to Panama. The stop in Panama was short lived, as we immediately left to collect the PC-24. We changed and took-off as quickly as possible. We arrived in Natal at around 2000 local time, where the immigration was surprisingly smooth. Clearly, the HAT ‚zemmeschiss‘ worked its magic, and they got their stuff together. At 2130, and being awake fore 21h30, we arrived at the hotel.

On the second day we started the 4h leg to Boa Vista, Cape Verde over the Atlantic. After the fuel stop, we continued crossing the second part of the Atlantic and made the approach to Casablanca in twilight. The setting sun on the left, and the incoming darkness on the right were quite a nice sight. We landed in Casablanca, waited for about 30 minutes for the fueler, and then enjoyed a nice farewell dinner at the hotel.

The last day of our journey started like many others. After a pilot’s breakfast, we got ready and made our way to the airport for the standard 09:00 departure time. We flew over the strait of Gibraltar, down the Pyrenees and Alps, and were welcomed by a small group of family and friends at the Mollis Airport at around 14:00.
