Norman Manley International-NAS Guantanamo Bay


After a quick stop in Kingston, I took off and headed north for NAS Guantanamo Bay (MUGM). As I headed north, I flew towards the Blue Mountains, which are home to Jamaica's highest point, Blue Mountain Peak. I attempted to level off at 2000 feet, but that would have put me on a crash course. I tried leveling off at successive intervals of 1000 feet, but each time the mountains kept going higher. Finally I was able to level off at 6000 feet. Coming over the top of the mountain range afforded me a great view. I continued north towards Cuba. The approach into NAS Guantanamo Bay went great, and I landed beautifully.
