Notes:

About to land at Graciosa after a short flight from Lajes, This was the very last day that the ATP would be flying commercially for SATA Air Açores, unfortunately! After a quick stop we would be flying back to Terceira island and thereafter to Ponta Delgada for the last leg of almost 20 years of service.
