December 13, 20223 yr Just spent some time soaring through Monument Valley on my way to Sedona, the terrain is simply stunning. Beautiful mesh and textures, jaw dropping rock formations everywhere. An amateur geologist's dream. Beautiful coloring from the mineralization. Near waypoint 4 are Potash Evaporation Ponds, with striking colors. Decided to hit pause and post the pln and wpr here. The weather preset has winds from the east for ridge lift, and nice thermals under every thick dark cloud. I recommend setting day / date to June 21st, 12:50 pm departure (Summer Solstice, Northern Hemisphere). If you don't do MSFS gliders, I suggest checking the area in a powered aircraft. https://drive.google.com/file/d/1_bd7A9PaNM5MLyKws-HQG8bD2RRGnTRs/view?usp=sharing This plan was created with B21 Task Planner, https://xp-soaring.github.io/tasks/b21_task_planner/index.html It's tasks work with gliding computers including Capt. Jacks LXN nav mod, which is very nice. You can dive on the starting line, which is 7000ft max. Remember to set the Kollsman (or just hit B). https://flightsim.to/file/41698/dg808s-lxn-nav-replacement https://flightsim.to/file/30384/dg-flugzeugbau-dg-808s https://flightsim.to/file/41623/discus-2c-lxn-nav-replacement https://github.com/JackBilbo/lxn-dg1001/releases https://github.com/JackBilbo/lxn-as33/releases /back to my flight.
