JMBIII Posted October 14, 2018 Share Posted October 14, 2018 Captain Joe Sparrow, seventh great-grandson of the infamous pirate, Captain Jack Sparrow, follows in his footsteps. Captain Joe is one who never passes up the opportunity of making profit out of adversity. Hearing of shortages of valuable commodities along the coast of South Carolina after the recent hurricane, he and loyal co-pilot, Bob Bos'n, load up the "Black Pearl" in Vera Cruz, Mexico. With "Black Pearl's" cargo capacity only half way filled, Captain Sparrow heads east. Across the Caribbean. A few hours later the mountains of Jamaica appear. Kingston Town awaits . . . . . . . with the remainder of the valuable hurricane relief supplies. "Down the way; Where the nights are gay; And the sun shines daily on the mountaintop I took a trip on a flying ship; And when I reached Jamaica I made a stop." (you may hum the chorus now if you wish) After another long flight over Cuba, skirting the coast of Florida (squawking the proper IFF code so as not to be thought of as a drug runner) the Bos'n says, "Land Ho, the coast of Carolina !" On final to Myrtle Beach - KMYR, and the delivery of the rum and tequila into the welcoming arms of the awaiting bartenders and barmaids. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Captain Lars Posted October 14, 2018 Share Posted October 14, 2018 Really unique story and a unique plain. Alas, I can't read the warning completely that's painted on the side near the door. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I try to make every flight a story. I know you didn't see it , but your nemesis, the pirate Jack Sparrow's ship is in almost every story I post. Very hard to see the "Black Pearl" off shore of Kingston in this one. Fourth pic - far off shore directly above the "Black Pearl 3". 27 minutes ago, Captain Lars said: Really unique story and a unique plain.

Rodger Pettichord Posted October 15, 2018 Share Posted October 15, 2018 Hey JMBILL. Those who would question Captain Joe's priorities have never seen how comforting a makeshift bar can be under such circumstances. And there always is one. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I've survived three encounters with Mother Nature's tempests and a drop or two of the dew was always beneficial.
