RJTT/PWAK

Post by alan CXA651 »

Hi.
Today i have started a flight from RJTT to PWAK , climbing to FL270 , i was going to do the direct route to PHNL but due age of engines , thought i might run out of oil , so going via wake isle instead .
Ok i managed to land in one piece on wake isle , boy that runway and isle doesnt half look small on approach , but it is 9000ft long supposedly , the ATIS as i was comming in on runway 10 was 045/24 vis 10nm overcast at 5500ft temp 26 dewpoint 24 alt 2999 so a severe crosswind , but steady wind , bit easier than a gusting wind like yesterday at KSFO , landing was soso , got a round of applause from passengers , but did not impress copilot , must do better.
