Hello everyone,

YES!!!! Welcome to my first video from Barbados where I am back in the beautiful and sunny weather! Today I have been plane spotting for about 3 hours to catch some amazing Caribbean action. This day, March 14, has been the busiest day for Barbados arrivals, and that's why Air Canada has decided to send a Boeing 777-300ER instead of the scheduled Boeing 777-200LR. 

Today was a treat because I was not expecting to catch this plane arriving in Barbados. The Boeing 777-300 is extremely rare in Barbados these days. The last time Air Canada sent its Boeing 777-300 to BGI was back on March 19 of last year when the scheduled Boeing 767-300ER had a technical issue. 

The filming of this landing was the first catch of the day and right after I just missed American landing. Expect to see more great planes coming soon, along with footage of the outbound trip.

Enjoy the video and don't forget to comment, rate, and subscribe!
