Compare that to what goes on in an Air France cockpit:

Wrong. EOH/SKMD is Olaya Herrera airport in Medellin. MDE/SKRG is Jose Maria Cordova Int'l at Rionegro.

gracias piloto... do you fly a private a/c in colombia?
Now that you can buy a decent 4 seat single engine aircraft for about $40K in the USA. I think it would be better option for me than buying a new car for the same price.

No, not yet but that's the goal for the future!

Right now I am a private pilot here in Gringolandia with dreams of someday dividing my time between here and Colombia - and having my own plane to fly between them!

It's nice to dream!

hey piloto... I 'am a parapente/paraglider pilot but with the prices being so resonable on the used market now, in the near future I want to get my licence. The plan is in a couple of years is to buy an a/c in the USA and fly it to colombia. I wouldn't need a full time airplane, lots of people buy planes together for that reason... we should keep in touch.
