That one is nice too. I like the globe shape and it seems easier to go to the other side of the planet.

THe windy.com looks pretty cool (as does the other one)

How have you found the forecast a week ahead? Been pretty accurate?

I love the commentary on that video "that kind of blows"

In a previous life I flew that approach into St. barts close to 100 times.  It never got easier.
The French had us do training and then a check ride before allowing us in .
Almost always a wicked X-wind, turbulence off the hill, and a slow approach speed close to the ground, as you followed the terrain down.


Not one of my fond memories...and overuns were a fairly common occurrance.

No one got hurt.  Just some bent tin.

And no one gives a shit any more if you bend an airplane.

Or two.

Or three.
