[aharon]

Shalom and greetings all my pals,

 

Presenting Douglas DC-8-71F's mist approach to runway 05 of MMCZ Cozumel International Airport located at the Caribbean coast near Cancún in the island of Cozumel, Quintana Roo, Mexico

 

MMCZ APP Controller: Clear for approach to runway 11

 

Me: Negative to runway 11 My DC-8-71F is too long and cannot make backtracking on runway 11. Requesting approach to runway 05 which has exits without need for backtracking.

 

MMCZ APP Controller: Roger You are authorized to change direction to head to approach runway 05.

 

Me: Affirm to clearance for approach to runway 05

 

On final approach to runway 05
