Bill,

 

I was looking at the basic maps on Southern Air's site and Leipzig is the main European DHL hub with one route to the States...if you can call a red line on a basic world map a route ;). East Midlands in England also hosts a DHL cargo area - I've seen vids on youtube of Southern Air hybrid 777s arriving at EGNX. Cincinnati is a main hub for them across the pond, so I thought I'd set up a flight from EGNX to KCVG.

 

I just use online flight planner to create an FSX plan & give me a ballpark figure for fuel. I run FSX: SE with FSOpen Clouds for weather (winds aloft disabled - FSX is shocking in that regard!). Stock FSX ATC too, but it's a cross I have to bear at the moment :) 

 

Cheers!
