Pilot Error :blind:, I used the distance to the first ndb waypoint (243) in the course director instead of the correct heading of 95. I had flown almost an hour before realizing the mistake. :eek: I changed course and tried to figure out if I could reach TJIG but realized that I did not have near enough fuel. I revised course and headed back to Jamaica.

Pretty costly navigational error:banghead:. The passengers are safe but the boss is very angry :angryfir:. I may have to stay in Buenos Aires when the Evita event is over.
 
Ah, taking your passengers on the classic "Ernest Hemingway" circuit of the Caribbean. "A guided tour that reveals the secrets of deep sea fishing that can be appreciated only from far above. Then a safe speedy return to Kingston."

Always looking for fresh and innovative business opportunities, Mr. Trippe. No problem.
