Palma, Mallorca

2:24 flight time … not bad!

Particularly when 10 minutes was London vectoring me to Edinburgh before the turn south.

Was actually a bit better given track miles of 815nm.

Great to meet @aart today. Another face to a forum name.

Was a good but busy airport. Had the joy of feeling like a 737 as I was pushed back one engine running. Then I realised how much I just paid for that joy.

Very nice to meet you and your wife Jason. And see your fantastic Mustang!
Folks, it will likely be on display at one of the next EuroGA fly-ins, provided we don’t go to a grass or dirt strip

Any tips for a rental car in Son Bonet ?

@aart : I will be there tomorrow.
Exept arrival and departure, we would like to do 1 VFR Flight around Santanyi. Wich Flight plan did you recomand ? What are the local rules ?

Hi Romain,

Not entire sure what you mean, but you can either do a local flight from Son Bonet and fly to Santanyi. To keep things simple I’d stay clear of the CTR of LEPA, so from So Bonet to E (City of Inca) and then eastwards, and back from Santanyi same way back. No need to contact Palma for traffic info, just use Son Bonet 123.5. Do not exceed 1000 feet AGL over the island. Obviously you can also fly to Santanyi when you arrive in Mallorca before going to Son Bonet. I’m assuming you fly VFR. Just mention to Palma Traffic info that you first do some sight seeing over the island before going to Son Bonet and wish to change to 123.5.

When do you arrive? I may go there tomorrow.

Local flight later in the afternoon or friday morning…
Thanks for the advice
