 ZZ Top and aviation I flew yesterday from Toronto to San Juan and back to Toronto. On the return leg a waypoint called ZZTOP was along our route of flight......thought it was funny enough to share with my muso pals here on the forum. These waypoints are usually computer generated 5 letter names that make up an often non-sensical word. In this case I believe the computer had a sense of humour and a penchant for party rock.
Cheers,
kev

Re: ZZ Top and aviation We got side tracked for a couple of days due to bad weather, and ended up at http://www.laconcharesort.com/ in San Juan on the airlines dime. It was a fun trip. We went to St. Marteen to checkout the beach landings. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WS8y89DHMTs[quote="kevin-c"]I flew yesterday from Toronto to San Juan and back to Toronto.

Re: ZZ Top and aviation The Boat Bar located on the beach at the end of the runway. $20 gets you an extra large pizza and two Heineken.  St. Maarten is a very cool place to hang out. We stayed at the Flamingo Beach Resort.kevin-c wrote: I did a landing in St. Marteen once since I've been here.........tried my best to give beach goers the haircut they will never forget...
