November 29, 20214 yr I just discovered these a few weeks ago: https://www.pilotedge.net/pages/alphabet-challenges and have been flying a lot of the SoCal ones recently. So far they've been fun and varied, with plenty of flights to keep me busy for a while, without having to think too hard about where I want to fly next. Admittedly, I'm not actually flying them on PE...typically either Vatsim or offline. The only drawback is that they're limited to the western part of the US...understandably so seeing as it's a Pilot Edge feature. Does anyone know of any similar "bulk" type premade flights like this, for other parts of the country? Something similar for the Eastern US would be perfect.

Not sure if this is of any use https://worldtour.flights/

November 29, 20214 yr The way I pick flights are to go on Flightaware and choose a starting airport. Then I look for the real world GA flights that have departed that airport and where did they go. Then I find a flight I like and fly to that destination. Then then next day I bring up that destination airport and do the same thing again and find a GA flight out of that airport and just keep doing that day after day. I always have a destination and since it was a real world flight I can see what they chose for routing, altitude and how long the flight was. I may choose the same routing or something different and / or a different altitude based on current weather vs when the real world flight took place. For me at least, Flightaware is a great resource to never run out of flight options to choose from regardless of the type aircraft - GA or even Airliner. If you fly the CJ4 or Longitude alot, finding Netjets flights on Flightaware are a fantastic way to find random flights. Their ICAO code is: EJA. Anyway, just a suggestion as it works great for me. Cheers, Eric
