Sky Blue Radio has a #WeatherWarriorWednesday contest during which they ask pilots to dial up adverse weather conditions in which to land. This was the flight we took.

Our BONUS WEEK #4 is a HIGHLY TECHNICAL first leg. The Thursday Night Flight Club pilots will be departing Villahermosa International Airport (MMVA) at 0015z. They will be flying to Toncontin International Airport (MHTG). The approach selected will be the RNP North Approach for runway 02. This approach is notorious for being a difficult approach as pilots are task with making a circle-to-dog leg approach around the city center, high terrain all guided by visual cues on the ground. The final dog leg turn to the left provides little room for error as pilots must scan the ground for a gray five-story building before making their last turn line up with runway 02. Here are two videos showing the approach:​ Nighttime approach in X-Plane (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OFSK7hAjoZ8) ​​Dusk Approach in MSFS 2020: https://youtu.be/fXNzeOicy-o?si=NJWKdDatztM0r62H ​ The second leg of the flight will be a departure from Toncontin (MHTG) after a refuel headed to Liberia International Airport (MRLB). Although the departure out of Toncontin is a a little tricky, the approach into Liberia is a standard approach. NOTAM to PILOTS: IT IS IMPORTANT YOU DOWNLOAD THE FREE SCENERY FOR MHTG IN ORDER TO USE THE LANDMARKS OF THE GRAY BUILDING TO ALIGN FOR APPROACH.
