May 26, 201214 yr I like KDEN to KSLC and back , or KSLC to KLAS is good, lots of terrain , traffic and procedures to deal with. Eric Walace
May 26, 201214 yr As far as FPS. that depends on your system and settings. I have a 'middle of the road' system and performace is fine, even at KLAX Like Eric above KSLC is one of my favorite areas to fly out of, heres a few others KMSO, KBOI, KLAS, KPHX, KSAN, KSFO, KPDX There really are too many to list. One thing you could do is open Google Earth and take a look around. Another thing that I do is to pick an airline, go to their route map site, and select a route from there to fly. Southwest has a lot of routes in the west and a lot are under 2 hours, which is great for me because I like short flights. Hope this helps Jay
May 26, 201214 yr Moderator BTW , the sceneries for Las vegas \ Los Angeles \ San Fransisco are FPS killers ? Thank you , Maor . Those airports aren't FPS killers if you use FSDT KLAS and KLAX and Flightbeams KSFO, otherwise the default KLAX and KSFO can be fps killers. The default KLAS isnt too hard on FPS though. Myself and others have posted that FSDT mega aiports like KLAX, KJFK, KORD, and KDFW actually get a lot better FPS than the default versions. Plus you can try the demo versions off all of them for free to see how they perform before you buy. Jim Burke Avsim Board of Directors | Avsim Forums Moderator

May 26, 201214 yr I like to fly from Baltimore to Buffalo with Southwest airlines (an actual Southwest airlines route). It is only a 230 mile flight and it is very easy on fps, and Buffalo is only 1 hour from me :) _______________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ Corey

Just use FlightAware to determine origin city, these are just fun arrivals: - PANC - KSAN - KDCA - KRNO - KLGA - KMDW Have fun! _________________________________ -Dan Everette CFI, CFII, MEI 7900X OC @ 4.8GHz | ASRock Fatal1ty X299 Professional | 2 x EVGA GTX 1080 Ti FTW3 (SLI) | 32GB G.Skill DDR4 2800

At my PC, FSDT reduce frame rate down to 5fps, while with default one frame rate hits the 50fps.
