Both planes getting ready for the flight to TTPP!!!

Waiting for clearance for pushback and engine start!!
Gorgeous view of realistic looking SYCJ airport!!!!
Taxiing to short of runway 06
Entering into runway 06 for take off via EDMEK departure
Airborne on climb to FL200 with background view of Demerara River in eastern Guyana that rises in the central rainforests of the country and flows to the north for 346 kilometres until it reaches the Atlantic Ocean.
Glorious view of L1011-500 making 180 degree left turn to EDMEK at same precise moment while being brightened by glow from lightings
Climbing out of clouds to FL200
Now cruising at FL200 above heavy clouds via A324 to the airport of destination
Clouds are clearing up with wing view of Esequibo River which is the largest river in Guyana and the largest river between the Orinoco and Amazon rising in the Acarai Mountains near the Brazil-Guyana border flowing to the north for 1,010 km through forest and savanna into the Atlantic Ocean.
Now cruising along the coast side of Venezuela with view of Rio Barima river
Gorgeous Caribbean waters!!!
Oh no another thunderstorm brewing as the plane is on descent from FL200 to 3,000 ft
Entering clouds during descent
Now emerging out of clouds at 3,000 ft crossing Trinidad on way to TTPP
Wow clouds are very thick and low during crossing of the island!!
Rumbling during final runway 10 approach battling against powerful thunderstorm accompanied by lightings
Clouds are getting worser!!!
Seconds before touchdown on runway 10!!!!
TOUCHDOWN!!!!
Front landing gear gliding smoothly to make runway contact
Disengaging reverse thrusters to get ready to exit from runway
Exiting from runway 10 into taxiway A2 to taxi to gates via taxiway A
Arriving at the gate to drop off passengers while some rushed to next door gate to catch the nearby propeller plane for the connecting flight to Tobago
