Rogier’s Riviera Vacances Nos vacances commencent à Marseille (LFML). Grit et grandeur cohabitent parfaitement à Marseille, une ville portuaire exubérante et multiculturelle avec un pedigree qui remonte à la Grèce classique et une prétention juste au manteau de la deuxième ville de France. Notre étape initiale évite la côte méditerranéenne, traversant l'intérieur des terres au-dessus de la Provence vallonnée avant d'atterrir à Nice (LFMN). La route continue le long de la côte de la Riviera après Cap-Ferrat et en Italie, en passant par Sanremo avant d'atterrir à Albenga (LIMG). Continuiamo a seguire la costa con il Mar Ligure a destra e le montagne a sinistra arrivando a Genova dove atterriamo a Sestri (LIM). Partiamo per dare un'ultima occhiata al mare e girare nell'entroterra e sorvolare la regione piemontese per atterrare a Caselle (LIMF) a nord di Torino seguita da una breve tratta per Cerroine (LILE) L'ultima tappa ci porta nelle Alpi verso la nostra destinazione Aosta (LIMW). Les anglophones (je vous regarde Ron) sont les bienvenus pour ce merveilleux vol au-dessus d'une belle partie de l'Europe. Rogier de Brumm Le plan de vol est disponible via DropBox ici. Avion La route est de 300 miles avec six atterrissages, donc vous voulez un avion qui peut naviguer autour de 160knts. Je prévois de piloter le Cessna 421 Golden Eagle mais comme toujours, vous êtes libre de voler ce que vous aimez.

Mountains, Mountains, Mountains, Desert (The Silk Road across Central Asia by Air) In this journey we will overfly three great Cental Asian mountain ranges (Pamir, Hindu Kush,& Karakorum) and finish on the edge of the Taklamakan Desert. Starting from Dushanbe (UTDD) the route proceeds to Khorog (UT1C/UTOD), Chitral (OPCH), Gilgit (OPGT), Skardu (OPSD), followed by a long final leg past K2 and on to the Silk Road oasis city of Hotan (ZWTN). The route is 685 miles and will require significant climbs over very high ranges and steep descents into deep valleys. Flight Plan The Pilots' Guide package contains flightplan files (P3D & Q400 formats), Q400 Tips Document (procedure for adding custom waypoints), Nick Wood Khorog Correction Scenery, a Pilots Guide document and is available here. Aircraft Because of the length, this route was planned using the Majestic Dash 8. A lightly loaded commercial jet such as the 737 or A320 would also be good choices. Another alternative is the King Air which is a bit slower but an acceptable choice. A cruise speed near 300knts will make keeping up easier. Scenery This route is off the beaten path for scenery developers and thus lacks the high fidelity add-on land class that we are accustomed to in full fat regions. There are freeware airports for Chitral and Gilgit but I found the P3D defaults to be better overall match to the surrounding terrain. In addition to Orbx FTX Global BASE Pack and FTX Global VECTOR you will want a quality mesh such as Free Mesh X to appreciate the dramatic relief in this part of Central Asia. Required Scenery: Nick Wood’s Khorog Correction. The location of our first airport (Khorog UT1C) is misplaced in P3D default. It is displaced a couple of miles north and west of its actual location and as a result both ends of the runway are in the river. Nick has provided a simple add-on airport that corrects the problem and is included with the Pilots Guide Package. Weather The weather might matter. The first choice will be live weather. But if we have clouds that completely obscure the terrain, then you might consider switching to historical weather. Active Sky at 1300 UTC on July 8, 2018 should give clear weather for most of the route. Where & When Date and time: Saturday July 14, 2018. 18:00 UTC. Multiplayer NOTAM: For this week only we will transfer Saturday multiplayer flight operations to the Digital Themepark environment. Ron will be away at Duxford looking for a DC-6.

Your courtesy will save others a lot of time and effort. Thanks! Recommend that you set your departure clock to 15:45 hours (3:45pm) in local time. The final airport (Hotan) does not have lights and we will plan to arrive before darkness falls.
