Had my first short flight over France today, heading towards Italy.
I used little nav map to plot my course and then manually entered it into the garmin on the Cirrus Sr22.
Felt great doing it that way. I went over a few interesting places on the way, one was an abandoned airfield with all vegetation growing over it, looked on google and sure enough there was one and its used for other events now.
I had a few issues, im using Ai ATC while im learning other stuff, but when I approached my destination my ai atc did not request to land or get any response from the airfield.
Also other issue unrelated was there didn’t seem to be any live traffic, maybe server issue there.
