Dear AVSIM,

 

I am looking for a list of scenic flight plans for FSX with departing airports and arrival airports. FSdestinations has a very nice list. Are there any other web sites that have scenic flights, fun flights, challenging flights, flight under 60 minutes flight plans for FSX?

 

Any help would be greatly  appreciated.

 

Thank You,

Regards post #14 above.

 

One aspect that I did not address was that with the "Mission Adaptive Flight plan Editor" you can do a

'Round Robin'.

You can enter your Departure Airport and at the end of the flight plan enter that same airport as the Destination Airport.

 

Actually you could have the same airport as many times as you wish in the flight plan , what you would be doing is multiple fly overs of the same airport.

That's all left to the user as options to use as he might desire.

 

During a flight the user might  want to do a multiple leg  diversion from/to one  waypoint  that might be near the middle of a flight plan,

in this example I will use EGCC , after the  EGCC waypoint he enters perhaps 3 or 4 waypoints then EGCC , basically to fly a loop off EGCC and

then continuing with the balance of the original flight plan.

 

It also allows for ILS run in alignment  , full stop landing  , then subsequent take off ,  at one or more  interim airports prior to proceeding  to

your final destination .

As follows,

 

- " ILS run in alignment " , on the radar touchscreen you generate a series of waypoints  similar to a 'STARS'  and enter them into the

   flight plan , they will bring you into alignment with the intended runway heading , then as usual when within radio range engage

  the Approach/ILS for ILS capture.

 

- "full stop landing" , disengage autopilot land , taxi to terminal to offload passengers.

 

- "then subsequent take off" , prior to landing , you nominate a position with the Radar touchscreen at about 7 nm or greater past the

   end of the  intended runway , this position is in alignment with the runway heading , the nominated position is then entered as the next waypoint after the

   current airport ICAO  in the flight plan , the 7 nm is to make allowances for  autopilot turn anticipation.

  After your visit to the terminal , you taxi to any runway that you desire , take off ,  and engage the autopilot , it will fly directly to the Radar  nominated

  waypoint , then execute the balance of the flight plan.

  If you use a runway other than the arrival one , then the autopilot will upon engagement turn towards the Radar nominated waypoint.

   Of course you could adjust waypoints to get it to fly straight ahead during climb out if you desire.

   You could also if you desire use the Radar touchscreen to enter a series of waypoints to simulate a "SIDS'  .

 

With the "Stand Off" facility you can create the whole of the flight plan or any of the above detailed modifications either before departure or 

do any of these modifications  during the flight while the autopilot  is actually flying the flight plan.

 

Cheers

Karol
