That is a Trinidad plane they used as Guyana Airways. I hope he didn't come all the way from England with that mickey mouse plane. He probably landed in Trinidad and came to Guyana in mini me plane. 

The plane is owned by Trans Guyana Airways. It flew Harry from Barbados to Guyana. He was in Barbados to celebrate their 50th Independence Anniversary.

HAHAHAHA  See I tell you  JACKASSES running Guyana now.

If Jagdeo was ruling today, any 747-400 plane could have landed in Guyana. The CJIA expansion project would have complete already for the British jumbo jet to land.

And Al Yuh seh Uncle Nehru wicked.

Prince Harry is a wild horse. He love to charter dangerous territory, and I hope he didn't go the famous Nelson street in Barbados and get his hands dirty. In my time, you could explore a woman's anatomy for one USD. Two dollars will take you into the depth of the abyss.

Britain’s Prince Harry arrives in Guyana; group calls for apology for colonialism

A loosely knit group of Guyanese protest as Prince Harry laid a wreath at the British War Memorial in Eve Leary.

Britain’s Prince Harry arrived in Guyana Friday afternoon to a red carpet welcome and immediately embarked on several official activities, only slightly smudged by a small group of protesters who called for an apology for British colonialism and slavery.

Greeted by Foreign Affairs Minister, Carl Greenidge and Britain’s High Commissioner, Greg Quinn; the fifth in line to the British throne took the General Salute from a detachment of ceremoniously-dressed members of the Guyana Defence Force (GDF).

He laid wreaths at the Independence Arch, Brickdam and the British War Memorial at Eve Leary as well as met with President David Granger at the Ministry of the Presidency and toured the  GDF’s Headquarters at Camp Ayanganna.

It was while he was at the War Memorial that a small group of Guyanese registered a public call for an apology for the impact of European colonization. “We are here today and we are asking for an apology because he is a representative of the Queen and we are here today to ask for that apology. We might not get but we need people to know that we have not forgotten the effects that colonization would have had on us both mentally and economically as a country,”  said Akola Thompson from the picket line.

Thompson was among four youths who came together to stage the peaceful picket at the corner of Young and Parade Streets, Kingston.

The placards stated “British empire was built on the backs of our ancestors #notmyprince and “You cannot come into my country and not address your family in its economic and social stagnation #notmyprince and “Britain encouraged racial division in Guyana #notmyprince “ .

Guyana is among the 13 other independent Caricom member states that have agreed to press Britain and other European countries for reparative justice. Suriname’s former mother country was The Netherlands and Haiti’s was France.

While here, Prince Harry will Saturday visit Surama Village where he will hear more about traditional village life, and take a short trip to the village’s Eco Lodge to see how the community is embracing eco-tourism.

Prince Harry will meet with rangers to learn about the work carried out at the Iwokrama Reserve, and how steps are being taken to protect this important forest. Before arriving at the reserve, Prince Harry will briefly call into Fairview Village.

Also on Saturday, he will visit Kaieteur Falls, the incredible single largest free-fall waterfall in the world, with a drop of 741 feet, making it nearly five times as high as Niagara Falls in Canada.  Prince Harry will embark on a short trekthrough the jungle to reach the falls with local guides who will explain the local flora and fauna of the area.

On Sunday, he will visit Joshua House Children’s Centre where he will see how Joshua House supports vulnerable young children in Guyana, between the ages of 5 and 12. Prince Harry will tour the facility, and meet both the children and staff who live and work there.

Flights would have also been arriving from the sun, moon, and all the planets too.  This was the PPP rant!  The should have added a rocket launching pad while they were at it.

More planes fly over Guyana than actually land there.  So why did the PPP fool themselves into building a much bigger airport than Guyana needs?......more opportunities to steal of course.

And then after the Prince 747 landed when would the next one arrive?  BA doesn't even use these planes to the Caribbean, as the market doesn't demand it, so why will they fly to Guyana?

Now only if you had heeded Granger's call for investors and open up your bright idea of eco tourist industry, plane loads of eco tourists would be arriving in jumbo jets.

I thought you screamed during the PPP era that Guyana was so terrible that no foreigner would visit.  So why the need for 8 jet bridges and the Marriott?

You claimed to be the expert on eco tourism and can make Guyana the mecca. But when push come to shove you turn tail and hide.

Guyana can develop 50,000 eco adventure tourists, but YOUR PPP wanted Guyana to rival Barbados in its tourist arrivals. Even boasted that it has a better tourist product. Yet you praise them.

I suggest that you chat with them about their belief that several daily 747 flights from India and China were on the horizon, once their megaterminal was completed.
