Cruising at FL310, but of a crosswind, smooth sailing though:

Descending to 10,000ft initially, due to mountains obstructing our

approach into MROC:

Interesting weather systems going on here:

Mountains in site, and clearly visible on the ST3400:

Leveling at 10,000ft to cross the mountains:

Just clearing the mountain tops and proceeding down once again:

You can see on the ST3400, the red indicates land that is higher then my current altitude, so those mountains I crossed are now higher then my aircraft, as I continue descent down into the local

area:
