Scenic flights in MSFS

Recommended Posts

Personally I love flying around New Zealand as it’s stunning and I’ve spent a fair bit of time there in real life so know it well. I really enjoy the western side of the states too but I think everywhere is going to be so much more enjoyable because of the whole different level of accuracy and visuals. It will take me a while but I’m planning on doing London to Sydney by GA when the sim is released. That will be fun.

 scenic to me include areas all along the Appalachians  

A nice flight between two carrier-like airports: Harlan County I35 that I remade to Mountain Air Airport 2NCO, an Orbx freeware, over the Tennessee river valley with its strange parallel ridges.

Another one, stunning AND historical  : humping your way from Lashio (India) to Putao (Myanmar) to Kunming (China) over the Himalayas. Of course, you'd need a DC3 😇

There are two birds that Asobo or a good 3PD should bring back from ACOF to fly this route : the Vimy and the Comet

But, but, those are British aircraft...!! Surely you would prefer anything more, well, French?
Demand the developers include the Bréguet ('Deux-Ponts') 763 or the Blériot 165 or you will riot 😀
OK, OK, you can ask for a Caravelle instead!

Just Flight might be interested in making a DH.88 Comet at some point.

The Comet and Wimy are famous to have done the route from UK to Australia and their rendition in ACOF weren't that bad. I loved the Comet.

Besides that, I am an Anglophile French, Entente Cordiale et tout ça  :laugh: ! Now, I wouldn't say no to a good French aircraft as those of course ! For the record, my first flight ever was on a AF Caravelle to spend a summer month in a Croydon family when I was a teen !

A month in Croydon? Lucky you - que de bonheur ! 😉

My first scenic flights are going to be:
KLGB - KGCN, over L.A., via Rainbow Canyon, onto KLAS and a loop around the Grand Canyon.
NZAA - NZQN, covering nearly all of New Zealand.

EGHE (Scilly Isles) - EGET (Shetland Islands) to cover a lot of the best bits of Great Britain.

They were very nice old folks having French kids in the summer to make a little money. Great rasperry pies. Then after, I got more serious about learning English. I regularly bought Mad magazine.

Nice flights.
