Inbound Courchevel for Christmas

[SLKVP 13]

Going out of Torino  Caselle to Courchevel for Christmas

Titles below screenshots

 

Ready to go... overcast is welcoming our little airplane....

 

Climbing above 4000ft, oh... nothing to see outside.

 

At last, approaching cruise 14500ft things clear-up.

 

And the passenger is happy...

 

Down in the 'soup' again....

 

Things start to get 'interesting'

 

Almost There...

 

Ready for a visual Courche-Tak approach ?

 

Let it Snow!!!

My best Wishes!

After flying there IRL last month I'd say you should have the virtual Darwin award for flying there in that weather! ;-)

 

Being curious - do you have any mountain flying experience? Did you do any preparation for the flight, and what were your means of navigation?

 

I would like to do some mountain flying in the sim as well, but so far I have not succeeded in creating a good immersion of what it its like in reality..

Thanks for the compliments !

I'm just a flight-sim pilot - no real experience. No mountain experience either, except some practice around the field - and some landings and take-offs -  before making the flight.

I used the default GPS and then, after  having the field visual, I did some more visual maneuvering until getting in final. 

Best Regards

Very nice!
