Jill's flight wasn't due to La Ceiba until 5:00p.m., well after the last commercial flight to Utila. So I chartered a small plane.

And this is not it. There's a small hangar at the Utila airport that houses this flying machine. It's a single seater that Chris of the Utila Dive Center takes out almost everyday. He had landed on the runway shortly before my SOSA plane left for La Ceiba. |
| Yes, here we are. I didn't get a picture of the plane from
the outside. (I was too interested in the gal on the inside.) The
plane is a small three passenger.

A picture of the Honduran coast, shortly after take-off. |
| The sun setting over the Utila cays. The west end of the main island lies just to the right. |  |

The view over Capitan Salin's shoulder. Pumpkin Hill is the most distinguishing feature of the island as seen from the air. |
| We flew over the island while waiting to land. (TACA pilots were practicing landings and take-offs on the Utila landing strip.) A nice way to see East Harbor. |  |
