Reached the 300 hour mark while touring the tip of South America as I travelled down the Atlantic Coast. It’s real nice down here but could use some love.
Cape Horn doesn’t look so tough.
Reached the Diego Ramirez islands and the end of South America. I guess they figured nobody would go here. That’s not like the pictures…unless I’m lost!
Nice little grass strip. SCNY I think.
Then wasn’t paying attention and the low fuel warning sounded over the mountains. Picked the closest airport but was not familiar with the terrain so had no idea how big it even was. Some Zoot place. Minutes later the right engine low oil pressure followed by the left. Nice little warning that you are done for! Luckily I was just clearing the mountains when they went down so I started scanning for a flat spot and found a nice size runway. Zoots!
