Correction: That's not Cerro Punta at 2:58, that is El Yunque, which is part of the Sierra of Luquillo mountain range. El Yunque is 3,540 feet high, close to 1 thousand feet lower than Cerro Punta. And Cerro Punta is not visible in this video, because it is over 50 miles to the west in the Cordillera Central mountain range at the very center of the island (in Jayuya).
It's based on weight distribution / load factor. The equipment is a small Cessna 402. I was the lightest weight passenger and was given the co-pilot seat. Ironically, 40 years ago as a youngster, I flew shotgun out of the same airport STT. Hadn't returned to St Thomas until this flight, so it is fair to say that I have only flown shotgun leaving the island 😎✈️🤙 Where is your Cape Air flight taking you?
On Cape air, the co pilot seat is a passenger seat. Just ask the gate agent nicely and you will be seated there. I worked there for a year and usually the best looking female passenger was seated there. Thank you ground crew.

Also, seats are assigned by captain at the time of boarding
@@GregSmith803 Ok thank you so much for the info!

The decision on my flight was made by the pilot, not the ground crew..
