V3-HGX (cn 208B1162) Just reached our "cruise altitude" of 800 feet on our 15 minute flight from Belize City to Caye Caulker where we will drop of two passengers and then continue on to San Pedro, Ambergris Caye. I got to ride shotgun...

The ride was great. The pilot was truly bored. He must be doing this trip about 20 times a day. He also treated the plane pretty rough, extending flaps above Vfe and such. Oh well, the Caravan can take a lot of abuse I assume... Personally I would have also chosen a higher cruise altitude, to give me more time if something goes wrong, on the other hand, the view was great, we could even see rays moving in the water.

The visibility is good from the front of a Caravan. How was the ride?
