Jose2005 viewsThis is Jose, one of our, shall we say extended crew members. Jose is taking a little R & R from cleaning bugs off the windshield of the Albatross, a job usually reserved for the Radioman and may I say, much easier while aircraft is parked.

The Osa Peninsula of Costa Rico is a perfect place for Jose to relax.
