Welcome back home Arawak!

After a longer than expected absence, today Tiara Air Aruba N.V. Boeing 737-322 P4-TIE named "Arawak" finally returned to its home base Aruba. The aircraft went to Miami for a maintenance job that could not be carried out here on Aruba. I decided to skip lunch today so I could race to the airport and shoot a nice series of its landing. So, at 14:10 I left the Tiara Air office at Bushiri to arrive just in time to tune in to Beatrix Tower to hear the crew reporting they were in left base at 9NM inbound. Just enough to take off my work shoes and shirt to climb a little sand hill and spot the Boeing 737 coming in on final.
I was happy as child to see our baby back on the island. Tiara Air will (re)start operations soon again! Welcome back Arawak and many many superb flights!
