A few days ago I flew Lima to Houston, United flies this route with their 767s year round and their 757s seasonally. I used the 757 because it is my favorite plane in the world, even if it is terrible in Infinite Flight. I left Lima around 12 PM which timed my arrival with Sunset in Houston. The Andes were an amazing few for the first few hours of the flight, and then the Mountains of Central American were fun to see as well. My flight time was 6 hours 42 minutes.

Leaving Lima below the blue skies of mid-day
The view of the brown, deserts of the Andes from 35,000 feet
As we fly over Northern Peru, the mountains become more lush and green
Crossing the Coast of Northern Colombia
The brown deserts of Xico, Mexico after we overflew the entirety of Central America
Starting to descend as the sun begins to set over the Texas City of Corpus Christi
The plains of the Houston-Galveston area with the shining sun west of our 757
Approaching Houston as the landing lights shine through the green sky
After an unstable approach we were forced to go around as seen by this Delta 757 sitting at the gate bound for Atlanta
After circling back toward the runway, we touchdown just before sunset at 5:44 PM in Houston
As always please let me know your thoughts and your favorite photo!
I know this may not have been one of my better posts, but hopefully I can get back with Portland to San Diego tomorrow
