Bermuda to Governor's Harbour

DAY 10, LEG 51 - Bermuda to Governor's Harbour

After many attempts at flying this leg, on every occasion there was some kind of issue with the aircraft or FS so it has taken some time to get this leg done.  It is no coincidence that this flight tracks straight through the area known as the "Bermuda Triangle"!  I thought about routing back to the US mainland but needed to get down to South America to enjoy the scenery during what is left of their summer.  As such this flight was completed successfully (eventually) but without screenshots.

Governor's Harbour is located on the island of Eleuthera in the Bahamas.  The island is very long and thin and the town is located roughly a third of the way along the island.  The airport mainly serves Nassau, the capital of the Bahamas, and the odd flight to Miami, Florida.

It was time for an early start from Bermuda to make the most of the nice flying conditions and to make the long sea crossing to Eleuthera while there isn't much to see at night.
