November 6, 201114 yr For FrancescoZ... the problem with MGA VOR is the VOR type; in this case MGA is VOR class "T" (Terminal VOR), for this reason the signal is weak, and for flights over 10000ft - 12000 ft and 30 NM out, you lost the signal. Israel D' Oleo Ochoa
November 6, 201114 yr try the following airports:FunchalGenoaGibralterNiceand finally for the real pilot: Wellington New Zealan!they have quite interesting approaches
November 6, 201114 yr If you're into 737-600 routes, then you should try CYYZ (Toronto) to CYOW (Ottawa)... Its just over 40 minutes Brandon Binder Drei Tage war der Vater krank - jetzt trinkt er wieder - Gott sei dank!
November 6, 201114 yr Welcome, Brandon!But I agree with Mel. Funchal is a crazy place! i7-6700K @ 4.5 GHz, 16 GB DDR4-2400 MHz, GTX 1070 8GB
November 6, 201114 yr I've heard there are a few airports in New Zealand that service the 737, and are quite small as well. Brandon Binder Drei Tage war der Vater krank - jetzt trinkt er wieder - Gott sei dank!
November 6, 201114 yr Lovely thread! keep posting!, KPDX is also great to fly into when you're approaching RWY28L/R, try flying it with default atc, the scenery is amazing Lethukuthula Vilakazi FACT & FAPM Proud Owner: PMDG NGX, PMDG 747-400x
November 6, 201114 yr Great thread so I will put mt 2 cents in... fly to the most Extreme airports in the world,according to the History Channels Most Extreme Airports List is as follows;10. KSAN - San Diego, CA - Congested airspace, busy single-runway airport - however, no mention of the 3 busy GA airports or 2 Naval Air Stations nearby - just talked about airline traffic to/from KSAN9. LPMA - Madeira, Portugal - Location on island, wind conditions, runway built out into ocean on stilts.8. KEGE - Vail, CO - Altitude and approach/departure through terrain7. LFLJ - Courchevel, France - Altitude, approach through valleys, short runway with an 18.5% grade6. VHHH - Hong Kong Kai Tak - Approach between tall buildings, make sharp turn to final at 300ft AGL5. LXGB - Gibraltar - Spain won't allow departures/arrivals through their airspace, so makes the approach/departure pretty interesting, highway goes across runway4. TNCM - St. Maarten, Netherlands Antilles - Short-ish runway, high terrain on departure end, proximity to beach on approach end, crazy people "riding the fence" when heavies power up to take off (I want to try that!)3. TFFJ - St. Barth's - Short, downhill runway, slam-dunk approach over a hill with automotive traffic at the top2. MHTG - Tegucigalpa, Honduras - High altitude, short runway, approach through surrounding terrain1. VNLK - Lukla, Nepal - High Altitude, 1700ft. runway with 12% gradeFor scenery I most often check out this list http://www.freewarescenery.com/fsx.php. But if you can find a good scenery package it makes them much better! Avsim has tons! travel to all 10 of the airports on the list in any order you feel will get you there safely.Quite the challenge
