Another day another time to remember the 'Good Old Days'. Don't know about you but I am sick and tired of this winter. Rain, wind, cold and cloudy days are making me depressed. It's time for a change of scenery in my life. What better way for this change is a beach holiday on an exotic island somewhere in the Caribbean Sea, and what better place than Sint Maarten (Saint Martin?). The white crisp beaches, the luxurious hotels and resorts, shopping galore and 5 star restaurants. You only need to bring along a 'carry-on' for change of clothes and an empty suitcase. But before you can enjoy the fruits of this delectable place you must arrive at the airport. We all know the approach of this airport is fraught with danger but it must be done. The videos of people being swept from the beach by the jet blasts are hilarious which really means the touchdown is very low and risky, be careful. Today's achievement will have you departing Miami International (KMIA) and arriving Princess Juliana International (TNCM), approx. 1066nm in a jetliner of your choice. Good luck and safe landing.

Oh, did I mention what the empty suitcase was for? There are numerous casinos there so you have plenty of space to pack all that cash you win to take back home.
