Palm Beach to Santo Domingo on a Cessna Skylane 182

On September 22, 2022, we set out to fly Sharky's 182 from Palm Beach International to Santo Domingo for a fresh paint job. We timed the trip directly between Hurricane Fiona and Hurricane Ian, we got lucky with timing. It's a long edit and not normally in my style, but wanted to remember the trip and share it with friends. Enjoy!

MDJB is my home airport. Is it your first time crossing the pond? I've made that cross a couple times on all kind of pistons from C172 and SR22 to PA34 and DA42.... I hope you enjoy DR

Did you have to pay customs fees and clear at Exhuma since you just stopped for fuel?

[@HispanicAviatoraAdventures]
