America to Cape Town flights, from Argentina, Rio, and Eldorado Intl (one of my favorite airports due to its location in the mountains). Some fun routes to fly in the PMDG 747.

September 8, 201015 yr I like to fly Anchorage - São Paulo (PANC-SBGR) with the Queen and this is one of the longest flights the 744 is able to do. But since no airline does this route, I mixed the flight plans of two flights and a suggestion of FSX to unite these routes. The flights are JAL6046 (PANC-KORD) and UA843 (KORD-SBGR). I used completely the route of JAL6046, then DCT to OBK VOR (right north the O´Hare) and then airway J89 to connect to UA843 route. The result is:REMBY NCA11 YWV J475 VLN J483 MOT FAR J36 GEP DLL MSN OBK J89 IIU ODF CH AR4 OLDEY L451 LETON L450 GTK A554 MIQ UA315 MNS UW9 ATF UL795 PIR PIRA8 ILS09RFor departing Anchorage use any RNAV STAR that has a NOWEL transition, then DCT to REMBY. And for arriving São Paulo use PIRA8 for runway 09R/L and PIRA10 for 27R/L. In São Paulo the 09 runways have CAT II ILS and 27 runways have CAT I ILS.OR, of course, you can just use built-in FSX flight planner. If you need any charts of Brazilian airdrome, go to http://www.aisweb.aer.mil.br/aisweb/ then click on "Cartas" on the left menu, type in the ICAO code of the airdrome (you can request up to 10 airdromes results per time) and click the "Consultar>>" button just below. All charts are in Portuguese and English. Have a good flying! Felipe Andrade at SBSP
