40 Totegegie on Mangareva Atoll to Easter Island 1402nm 10h30

 

23:05.0S 134:53.00W

Two days ago, we arrived on time just before sunset here
at Mangareva after a 7 hour flight from Papeete.

Again, this is definitely a place to visit and discover.
Simply beautiful!
What an experience those extremely nice, friendly and helpful people.

Yesterday we refueled HB-PON with two brails of AVGAS
which was especially shipped in by boat from Tahiti.

Tomorrow Saturday morning we depart from here at 06:00
local time to Easter Island.

We plan to fly over Pitcairn Island on the way, and expect
to reach Easter Island tomorrow Saturday in the evening
just after sunset.
