mutley 4,495 Posted October 10, 2008 Report Share Posted October 10, 2008 Hi Gang, I have been working on a preliminary route for the next challenge. After some investigation of difficult approaches and landings, historic routes and unusual destinations I have come up with our route. There are a couple of airports from the first challenge, the rest are new locations. This challenge has half the number of legs as the last one and is not a tour of continents but still 52623 nm start to finish. In order to keep the admin down I will be publishing the whole challenge in one go so when it comes to bidding for the legs when they're gone, they're gone! Please let me know what you think. There should be something for every one, military, GA, regional and airliners. If you have a favourite or local airport that wasn't in the last challenge either then please let me know and I will see what I can do to incorporate it into the list. The route: London city EGLC UK Ronaldsway EGNS Isle of man Barra EGPR Scotland Shannon EINN Ireland Le Bourget LFPB France Lippstadt EDLP Germany Hamburg EDDH Germany Soerstokken ENSO Norway Honningsvag ENHV Norway Kubinka AFB Z25S Russia Riga EVRA Latvia Skavsta ESKN Sweden Innsbruck LOWI Austria Courcheval LFLJ France Naples LIRN Italia Kosice LZKZ Slovakia Totopeni LROP Romania Rhodos LGRP Rhodes Pietersburg FAPI South Africa Seychelles FSIA Seychelles Maldives VRMM Maldives Madrass VOMM India Paro VQPR Bhutan Abakan UNAA Russia Khabarovsk UHHH Russia Yuxho-Sakhalinsk UHSS Russia Vladivostok UHWW Russia Daegu RKTN South Korea Okayama RJOB Japan Andersen AFB PGUA Guam Bali WADD Bali Darwin YPDN Australia Queenstown YQNS Tasmania Dunedin NZDN New Zealand Bellows AFB XBEL Hawaii Dutch Harbor AK23 Unalaska Alameda (SFO) NGZ USA San Diego KSAN USA New York KJFK USA Washington DC KDCA USA Ocala KCOF USA Tegucigalpa MHTG Honduras Princess Juliana TNCM St Maarten Saba SABA Saba Bequilla TVSB Bequilla Paramaribo SMZO Suriname Natal SBNT Brazil Wideawake FHAW Ascencion Lome-ToKin DXXX Togo Funchal LPMA Madiera Gibraltar LXGB Gibraltar Santander LEXJ Spain London City ECLC UK 52148 Nm If you have Google Earth installed then here is a file that will load all the destinations.

Axel 0 Posted October 13, 2008 Report Share Posted October 13, 2008 i would like to join in new to screenies though so maybe one of the later routes; however, i can only fly at week-ends hope that is not problem. Can't wait to fly my adored BAC1-11. BTW i am FSaddict on Justflight forums Link to post Share on other sites
mutley 4,495 Posted October 13, 2008 Author Report Share Posted October 13, 2008 Hi Axel, That should not be a problem. As soon as you know which flight you are flying you can fly at any time so long as you post your flight in sequence. If that means we have to wait a few days then that's fine. I hope you can join in some time. Cheers Link to post Share on other sites
