The plan
This flight can be flown using almost any aircraft that can land on the 3,200ft runway at Nordernay. I flew the freeware Douglas C-47 v3.12 Beta by Jan Visser and support team, which is available on the cover CD of PC Pilot issue 106, or from major file libraries. The unique PC Pilot livery for this aircraft, along with some Flight Simulator flight and weather files and charts, are available on the cover CD of this issue (108).
Your VFR route is EDDT-BKDEDHI- EDWG-EDWY, and with each leg being VFR, we have provided lots of useful flight notes to help you enjoy the route. After visiting the cities of Berlin and Hamburg, we will be tracking westwards along Germany’s northern coastline. The accompanying screenshots were taken using Orbx Simulation’s Germany North and Aerosoft’s German Airfields Inselhuepfen, which gives scenery coverage and VFR objects for the entire route. See the Scenery Options box for alternatives.
