Lets get crazy and graze the grass and herd some cattle as we fly a low dangerous approach into Toncontin.
... Alternate Equipment for retro endorsed pilots only: Boeing 707, i dare someone to try and do this flight in this beast ...

well I made one up. I took the AAV 707 loaded it into FSX and put in the panels for the default 747 and the sound of the 737-800. IF it looks like a 707 and quacks like a 707.. then it must be a 707. Well almost.
Most of the functions work. It actually looks good but no belching 707 smoke. I miss that the most.

This was a fun flight in this classic bird. The approach to MHTG is wild with the mountain in the way. You really have to hug the ground all the way down. If you look down during the approach, your shadow is surprisingly close.
Nice shots Mike. I flew it in the 707 also. I'll have to post my shots...
