I have never really been a huge fan of smaller propeller planes. Just the size and amount of air turbulence you tend to feel, most times either makes me sick, or scares the 💩 out of me.
With that said, almost always we would take these planes from island to island, and on this particular flight from the Island of Faial, to São Miguel, we flew right over Mount Pico in the process. A 7,700 ft stratovolcano, on the Island of Pico.
I am told that sometimes you can actually spot climbers on the top, hiking up to the top with the @tripixazores team! Made the small flight, not so scary this time, and actually quite pleasant.
