You happy Niko? I'm happy. Yeehaw
Welcome to a very beautiful South Caicos Island. You remember in last week's video
I said that we had a bit of a problem with the idea of Crossing Cuban airspace well it's not a
problem anymore because we've decided not to cross Cuban airspace you want a little lower
uh yeah so yeah I could just if you twist that one yeah I got it
you see Cuba has got this huge area surrounding it called an adz or I think it's an air defense
Zone it's got an inner Zone and an outer zone and to pass through either of those you need a
clearance and to pass through the inner one you actually need a permit and because we know we
can't get through that and because we know that going around it we actually thought about going
to Jamaica at one point refueling there and going on it's just not possible with the amount of time
we have left on this trip so we're going to stay north of that 80z and start making our way slowly
back to Florida today yeah let me do all that you can just focus on your breaks are yours
okay what that means is hopefully we'll be back in America by the end of today but in order to
do that we've got a long day of flying ahead of us and that's why I'm up really early this morning so
we can get something to eat get to the airport get the aircraft pre-flighted and go foreign
taxiway Alpha for a departure Runway one one uh to Provost VFR oh I almost said Echo yeah
you did I almost did fixture yep there you go you happy Niko I'm happy there she goes she just took
off she likes you and I like her too wow wow wow wow wow so departed South County cost now about
a third of the way to our first stop it's only what have we got 30 miles 10 minutes until we get
there this is a really important part of Aviation you're never gonna always get your plan a like we
really wanted to go to Cayman Islands right we had accommodation books we really wanted to go
there but it just was becoming too complicated we were just trying to squeeze too much into one plan
the moment it starts getting too hard my opinion and I love flying with Nico because I think he's
similar to me my opinion is it was too hard to throw it away and that's really what we've done
today I almost don't care what the destination is as long as the flight itself is going to
be able to be executed safely and enjoyably we will be saying wow many many times on this trip
wow look I really want to see some sharks runway in news 1-0 transition level eight zero
surface wind 100 degrees zero six knots

that I think so I think it's gonna be fine I think we can make a decision after that
it's all slow so slow we've been tracking this we've been tracking This Cloud this sort of
storm system on our left for probably about half an hour 40 minutes oh yeah just going
alongside so Nico's been flying us around the edge of it diverting the hope is around the
edge of this we'll be able to get back off track and head back towards Florida again

of the buildings along the beach right but wow I never realized Miami actually spread out that
far there's a lot more to it you just think of Miami Beach no no it's uh Miami's a big town yeah
