From SCRU to SAQE (with the Porter)

Featured Replies

After viewing @Stoopy's thread I decided to start from his destination SCRU Puerto Murta in Chile and found appropriate to fly East to SAQE Los Antiguos in Argentina  (yes, this is a terrible pun😋) !

Looks like a great flight! Its easy to appreciate flying in this part of the world.  I might stop by SAQE on my way back up (took a while for my thick skull to get the pun) as I am heading south as far as I can go. Its already starting to feel like I am reaching the edge of the world down here. But loving the scenery and bush flights. Still looking for those flamingos.

On the way through Central America I fell in love with Costa Rica and my virtual pilot parked his cranky old DC-6 and took a few weeks off there to drink rum and fly NeoFly bush missions. I feel another such vacation coming on...

I flew yesterday from SAQE to a small strip near Cochrane (Lago Brown) to see the birds. No flamingo !  No flamingo but snow on the strip and I didn't equip the Porter with skis so I diverted to Cochrane which has quite a nice approach.  

Costa Rica is indeed well served by MSFS. Lots of small bush strips on the Pacific coast,SE of Nicoya. 

I like Peru too, specially flights over the Andes.

Wow, awesome set!

Flying MSFS below 10K feet in many "exotic" places can be pretty spectacular.
