FSX Mission--You And The River. Aafke Gruttzen, a Dutch pilot, has been flying the Usumasinta River for over 42 years. This natural border between Mexico and Guatemala is a long river which moves thousands of tons of water irrigating many kilometers in the Lacandon jungles of both countries. Aafke flies from Tenosique in Mexico to the oil refinary deep in the river basin of Guatemala. All mail and general merchandise travels in either his old 140 or DH2. Today, his last day on route, is sad and rainy. You will start flying the route after tomorrow when he retires to Burgerbrug in his native Holland. Follow the river and you might be here for 42 more years like he did. By Gera Godoy C.
