CQ has it - 1969 to be precise. Here is what it looks like now.

Thanks India Four Two, I was waiting for the sun to rise in your part of the world.
Next challenge --- at least I can't find it on the list of aerodromes we've already had.

You're lucky - I was up early this morning.

Right, we have remained in the Caribbean after the previous challenge.

I wish I could find my slide of the runway taken from an Islander on short final.

Is it Carriacou Island, Grenada (CRU)?

Correct KMG, it's Carriacou. You have control.

Point Salines is a MUCH larger airport, capable of handling substantial jets. My LIAT Islander flight was from Pt Salines to CRU. We climbed as rapidly as an Islander does for the length of mainland Grenada, thus having a reserve of height for the over-water portion to Carriacou. I think CRU was still gravel when I was there.
