CU-C1515 (cn 188010805) It was maybe the worst climate for spotting but nothing beats spotting the only airworthy IL-18 in the whole of America. The first shot of it here since 2007 and apparently will be retiring very soon according to the Captain. It might be the last time this is spotted in airworthy condition :(.

M-VGIN (cn 320) Sir Richard Branson departing SJO for Beef Island, BVI (TUPJ) close to where his private island in the Caribbean is. Branson was in town for a 1-day meeting with Costa Rican officials concerning the illegal shark finning in Costa Rica. He met with President Laura Chinchilla, signed a few agreements and jetted away. Shame his Galactic Girl was sold as I believe he is expecting a FA7X. New to the DB. [Canon EOS 60D + Canon EF 100-400mm f4.5-5.6 L IS USM] |

N5000X (cn 611) Apparently this G5 belongs to a former Microsoft executive which apparently flies very little making a rare appearance at SJO. A vacation visitor for a week which arrived and departed both from Boeing Field, Seattle, WA (KBFI). Wonder if the FAA permits those spaces between the registration numbers...

N797KK (cn 9290) Probably my favorite biz jet sighting in 2012 was Kohler's GLEX.

Arrived from La Romana, Dominican Republic (MDLR) to spend NYE's in Costa Rica. [Canon EOS 60D + Canon EF 100-400mm f4.5-5.6 L IS USM] |
