Lots of airfields in Panama are use to play soccer or make shortcut when there's no traffic, this one in particular has a walking line in the middle of the runway to a village, that's the only way to get in and get out from there😂
wow, this is mind-blowing...wonder how many times some ramp worker had to kick back the football unto the field??? that dog strut unto the tarmac as though he was about to inspect something...hahahahaha.. that bicyclist....this is unreal...come one now...
There's a walking line in the middle of the runway to a village, that's the only way to get in and out front there, and yeess😂 it's very common to see kid playing on the runway, when a plane that is out of the itinerary need to land the airport patrol goes there and advise about the land, after that game restart😅
Not much variety of aircraft, but as usual you just concentrated on great photography, Alex. Nice how a small airport like Bocas del Toro lets you position yourself almost anywhere to get great angles. You were almost as free to wander around as the dog, who seemed to have freedom to go wherever he wanted like he owned the place (or maybe he does!)
Looks like a scene from the Amazon Rainforest. Nice catch of the dog trotting up to the tarmac. Possible airport pickup 😅 Great shots all around Alex.. well done! 👍
Good Questions. I don´t know it. The ATR42-600 would be of course a good choice - nearly the same size and much more efficient. But I guess they´ve simply not enough money to acquire them - so important their Service is for the Country, I can hardly imagine that they earn much money with these Flights. Probably just enough to stay in Business.
He estado un par de veces en Bocas del Toro, y volado en esos Fokker 50. Son aviones que han sido muy buenos, pero ya están llegando al término de su vida útil y deben ser retirados pronto de servicio. Air Panamá se ha quedado resagada en cuanto a flota de aeronaves. Ya hace unos años retiraron los Fokker 100 y ni fueron reemplazados. Copa Airlines en equipo Jet ha sido uns muy fuerte competencia para Air Panamá. No sé qué tan rentable sea hacer unos pocos vuelos a Bocas del Toro y El David por parte de esta ya muy pequeña aerolínea.
I was recently visiting Nehalen Bay and they have a little strip. Same thing, no fence, completely accessible runway. Shame they only get General Aviation
Unsecure airport for these reasons: a dog in the ramp, birds everywhere, objects on the runway, a ciclyst in the threshold. Air crash may occur due to any of this elements.

Really gotta love the chill culture down in Panama, so laid back they don’t even need a fence for the airport lol

That dog walking on the ramp 😂😂😂
love the sounds in the back ground, birds and jungle is all I can think of.

@@carlosj.batista790 that hilarious. I love it
In the middle of the track people always cross from one side to the other, I'm from Panama and I know it🤣🤣
Honestly it looks like Thailand, the Philippines

Fantastic! Hope you got nice weather!
Nice spotting, I hope you enjoyed your stay in Panama; Home sweet home.

The rain, the jungle in the background, the Fokker 50, totally brings the south american vibes! Nice video!
At 2:55 you can see some kind of FOD fly off the runway
That’s super cool man!!!
Que interesante wuaoww ❤❤❤ Panamá
Incredible seeing these still flying!
Nice to see someone Dutch aviation history still flying 😊
Good afteroon
Oh and the airport at the end of the runway, perfect design.
Wonderfully close.
Lovely!
Beautiful aircraft…. Jumped the F27 several times early 90’s
Head to MSP or DEN to fly on a Dornier 328 Jet on Denver Air Connection. They also fly Metroliners.
On the list!
Great videos.
Does Air Panama have any plans to replace those geriatric F-50's? The ATR42-600 or even the -72 would be ideal.

You can go to rio hato and Panamá pacifico these airports also receive international flights
Indeed an unconventional Place for Planespotting - I will not say: Not much to planespot with three Flights a day...😄👍

Hay que convertir ese aeropuerto en un aeropuerto internacional.
Rewind "Fly 571" October 1972 ... 😔
That bike at the end...
A cuanto sale el ticket, de Panamá a Bocas?
Cuanto es el pasaje de panamá a chamquinola
I wish to play soccer there
NICE SPOTS i would like to go there my self but i dont have the money 😭
You standing on a shed roof top. Lolol😅😅😅😅
The question: how long before Air Panama decides to replace them with new-production ATR72-500 models?
Plane spotting Regina please
Hi
I don't know how is the inside noise in this airplane, but i do know it's one of the noisiest outside.
Must of been loud being so close to the aircraft.
I wonder why they started the number 2 while passenger boarding was ongoing? What a waste of fuel.
