Germany South Part I

[Viking01 183]

Germany South Part I : Castles, towns, and rivers

We start at the small airport of Betzdorf-Kirchen (EDKI) and visit many cities, castles and monuments until we land at Speyer (EDRY). Landings enroute include Bonn-Hangelar (EDKB), Merzbruck (EDKA), Dahlemer Binz (EDKV), Winningen (EDRK), Buchel AB (ETSB), Mainz-Finthen (EDRZ), Worms (EDFV) and Mannheim (EDFM).

 

Flightplan & Pilots Guide:
Available here.

Aircraft:
The route is 284 miles, well suited for going low and slow again. I'll fly the A2A C182, but as always, the choice is yours.

Recommended scenery:
Orbx Germany South.

All airports we land on are enhanced (like in all full regions from ORBX), so no other addons are required.

Recommend that you set your initial clock to 13:45 hours in local time to account for flight time and the usual "faffing about" time.

Neat stuff... I believe Ricki and I slept in one of these Hotel/Castles years ago...

BTW:  Is "Dahlemer Binz" local dialect for Daimler Benz?

Just got Germany South installed, and I must say that it looks lovely

Just finished the narrative and I can confirm that there will be lots, and lots, and lots of castles on the tour.   There is a rumor (which I am starting now) that Gunter will be administering a quiz, so be sure to prepare.

[Ron Attwood 3,464]

I've heard a rumour that Gunter will be having quins. Perhaps we should have a whip round for him.

[Viking01 183]

A quiz, yeah, excellent idea...

A 1999 arrival of the Ukrainian An-22 into Speyer for display in the museum. Three approaches to give the crowd something to see. No worries.

You can choose either the Antonov film or the Museum film.

Great map! One day we could track the Rhine from Lake Constance to the North Sea, that would be an interesting flight!

Lots of nice shots, thank you!

Sorry I missed this flight. Grands Prix have that effect. Well done Lewis!

I'm going to do the flight in the week.
