:world_map: Route Overview

A fast southbound leg crossing the Java Sea, linking the Borneo coast to Bali. The TBM’s speed and climb performance make this leg ideal for efficient oceanic navigation and smooth island transitions.

:sunrise_over_mountains: Highlights

  • Mekar Putih (WAOH): Departure from Kalimantan’s southern coast.

  • Pagerungan (WARP): Mid‑sea waypoint — formation spacing and photo ops.

  • Lombok Intl (WADL): 15‑minute break stop — refuel and regroup with Mount Rinjani backdrop.

  • Bali Intl (WADD): Arrival over the island’s western beaches — full‑stop finish.

:compass: Navigation Notes

  • Maintain 7,500 ft VFR for terrain clearance and visibility.
