...where we waited a long time for traffic at La Aurora in Guatemala City, but eventually flew to San Jose, Costa Rica (for customs, immigration and fuel) then to Tortuguero, Costa Rica. Guatemala City is excellent for photographing planes as they take off: N2018T, N206EE, N208TR, N2691Y, N397RA, N5477N, N55S, N59MM, N83777, N929PG, and N9922X.
