While flying IFR was fun, my next destination was sans navaids, so today's leg is VFR. After taking off from VC Bird International (ANU/TAPA), I climbed to 1100 feet for the over water portion of the flight. Once I reached Guadeloupe, I climbed to 3000 feet to clear terrain. I remained there until I reached Baillif (BBR/TFFB). I didn't descend soon enough, and when it became clear that my 100-knot nosedive descent wasn't going to end well on the 200 foot strip, I decided to go around. I flew the pattern at 800 feet, and made a much better landing. It was a tad off-center, but it was straight at least.
