So I've just started playing Microsoft Flight Sim as my chill out game and I want interesting places or short beautiful routes I can tootle past in a Cessna on my lunch breaks.
Is there somewhere local near you or somewhere you've been that would be pretty and interesting to fly around?
Sure I could do all the adventure flights around the pyramids and New York and stuff, but I kind of like the idea of places I wouldn't have thought of or know about.
Wow, this is an amazing breakdown and both flights sound amazing. Thanks so much for all the detail and effort. I'm not even comfortable with the heavily assisted basics yet but you've given me some serious goals.
The first one could be made a lot easier by going for a landing at Seattle Tacoma International (KSEA) instead once you've had your fill of sight seeing. (It's off to the north-west from Mount Rainier) :big-cool:
The second one I still fuck up the navigation on every time. I'm not sure which course the actual airline pilots take, but I've gone through a few iterations of trying to come up with a more fool-proof flight plan. It's not quite there yet.
Edit: Lol. I just watched a youtube video of someone else trying it and they got lost too. It's not easy.
