This LP really kicked my sense of adventure into high gear. I've never piloted an aircraft, haven't even played any MSFS, but I started mapping my own imaginary twin-prop RTW routes. Great presentation, love the chilled vibe, and the visuals.

A few years ago I flew (commercially) from Hurghada to Cairo, and while following the Red Sea coast was neat, I was slightly disappointed we didn't get to see the Nile from above.

Gewehr 43 posted:Thanks for following along. We are nearing the end of our African journey. Only another leg or two to go, then it's off to the Iberian peninsula and Europe proper. If you have any recommended sights to see, feel free to mention them! Narvik in Northern Norway has a lot of WW2 history which would be right up your alley. The Norwegian coast is stunning which would make for great visuals, you'd also hit the Lofoten archipelago on the way to Narvik. Wolfsschanze which was Hitlers eastern HQ is in north eastern Poland, in Mazury which is the Polish lake district. I doubt the bunker ruins are modeled in Flight Sim, but the lake district is beautiful. Edit: Since the very title of this LP is about exotic booze, Zubrowka, Polish Bison Grass vodka is made in Bialystok in eastern Poland. fish and chips and dip fucked around with this message at 07:22 on Jan 18, 2023 |

Gewehr 43 posted:Thanks for the recommendations! The Norway invasion sites are definitely on my list. Another one for Norway, the battle of Drøbak-sound, just south of Oslo where a bunch of fresh recruits and pensioners using 50-100 year equipment managed to sink what was then the pride of the German Navy and buying enough time for the King and parliament to escape capture. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Battle_of_Dr%C3%B8bak_Sound

From what I understand, the rock of Gibraltar interferes with winds which can really smack a plane, especially a small one, around. Do you know if that's modeled in the game? Explanation video of what I mean: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3BkOgZPjZX4

painedforever posted:Those buildings are beautifully modelled. Interestingly enough, A Coruņa airport has had one fatal crash, and that was due to fog and not the terrain, that was Aviaco Flight 118 in 1973. Bilbao airport, however, had Iberia 610 crash in 1985 into a radio tower on a mountain. Here is a very detailed, and long, article about Iberia 610 if you're interested https://admiralcloudberg.medium.com/radio-silence-the-crash-of-iberia-flight-610-a6154b711c83

There's a whole website about people flying GA aircraft around the world: https://www.earthrounders.com/ The website isn't the best, but should be interesting to people reading the thread.
