World Tour 2 - Leg 52 - Okierabu to Amami

Time to jump between islands. These part of the trip is being quite monotonous. Flying from island to island, low if possible, to enjoy the views of their villages and fields. At least I'm transporting people and cargo (4 passengers and some construction material), so I'm making money. For this leg I decided to set a low altitude since the beginning and, since the skies were clear, I could keep it for the entire trip.

 

Short leg, about 80 nm. I estimate 2 more legs till arriving to main Japanese islands. It will depend on the weather and jobs, of course.
