Buenos Aires to Santiago,Chile (SAEZ - SCEL)



"sunrise"
Santiago.
What a beautiful leg to fly. Gorgeous sunrise pushing us across the continent towards the Pacific west coast and Chile. As soon as we crossed into Chilean airspace the ground terrain below changes rapidly and the Andes mountains rushed up to meet us. I had probably started my descend a bit to early as the snow covered caps of Mount Tupungao already sit at 21 555ft seemed a bit to close for comfort and gave some concern to the passengers.
