Safely arrived at SBPA Porto Alegre , A nice evening and a few beers with Jeff ,Mike and Moses at Sao Paulo . Quite a surprise to see the boys here as when when we received the invitation to Argentina I had no idea that it was some sort of competition ( race ) Apparantly they have opened this challenge up to all Nations and operators for a lucrative contract . I thought it was just a routine trip to south America , but on meeting many other pilots journeying to the same destination ,I guess it may be a little more Who knows what awaits at Buenos Aires
