I decided to fly around the world on a Cessna Citation Longitude. Of course, it’ll be done in many, many legs, to enjoy the sights as much as possible.
Leg 1 - Leg 1 Florence (LIRQ) to Athens (LGAV)
With a stop at Corfu (LGKR) for refueling because this thing sucks way too much fuel.
Nice one, I am doing the same thing. I started from Ushuaia (SAWH). My plan is to lay a route to visit all the handcrafted airports :). The route so far has been SAWH-SAWC-SCBA-SCMK-SAVB-SAZS-SCIE-SAME-SANT-SARE. I am enjoying this so much Looking forward for new screenshots
Here’s the second leg, from Athens to Istanbul. The views over ancient Costrantinople are amazing and the approach is just perfect to enjoy them even more.
Now that Asobo gave me back my Cutation Longitude (which was taken with the weekend issues ) I could finally fly leg 4, from Cairo (HECA) to Tel Aviv/Jerusalem (LLBG).
Doing a similar thing. I didn’t plan to … started off just messing around Buenos Ares for no particular reason … and just started each ‘flight session’ from the las landing location. Worked my way up the Andes, through to central Mexico, across southern USA and up the eastern Atlantic coast. Last night I got as far as Goose Bay.
Some long oceanic flying to do (AI co-pilot Chucky will take care of those) … hope there’s something good on TV
Seriously - a brilliant way to see the world (and appreciate just how big it really is!) Thanks for sharing your adventure!
The Andes is a location I’d really like to see, but it’d be difficult with my current plan (I don’t think I can cross the oceans anywhere south of the Equator with the current fuel issues the Citation has lol). Will have to go down there in a separate trip.
Here’s leg 8, from Agra in India (VIAG) to Paro in Bhutan (VQPR), which is one of the most challenging airports in the world apparently. The approach is indeed rather hairy.
Also flew over Nepal and of course, the highlight of the flight is the view on the Himalayas and Mount Everest.
