Manaus to Timehri

DAY 13, LEG 64 - Manaus to Timehri

With an aircraft full of fuel again we continue our journey northbound into our fifth country of South America, the former British colony of Guyana.  The capital, Georgetown, is served internationally by Cheddi Jagan International Airport and is located in the city of Timehri, 25 miles south of Georgetown.  The capital has a domestic airport, Ogle, but the runway is too short for the B1900D so we are limited to using the rather distant, but larger, international airport.

Taxi out at Manaus with a GOL 737 departing in the distance to Porto Velho.

Leaving Manaus behind.

Cloudy approach to Timehri.

Crossing the Demerara River on approach to Timehri.
