Flying Boat World Tour [FINISHED]

This started way back in FS2004 with a Boeing 314 Clipper. In FSX I switched to a Catalina and now it’s the Icon A5.

Been tempted to do a world tour in my A5 too! Good luck on your virtual travels! It’ll be a very long venture!

Thank you! Maybe you want to join in? It is a real experience, especially if you do it online.

I am about 3/4 of the way by now, so I “should” be home soon. :wink:

The world tour continues further North. The beautiful little town of Pelican Narrows in Saskatchewan, Canada was the destination of this flight over many, many lakes.

It is getting colder and colder on the world tour. I am deep in Canada now, a country beautiful to look at. Little Churchill River, a Lodge for fishing and canoeing was my destination today.

Now winter is really here! But I have a new boat to fly, so I was eager to get going. Clouds hampered me the first half of the way, but after that the views were astonishing!

You also could have used (83B) Northern Maine Regional Seaplane base I’ve been flying around there in the default Cessna 172 Amphib g1000

Its the very last flight of the Flying Boat World Tour! I would highly appreciate if some of you would join in.

The plan is to start preparation on Saturday, January, 28th at 1200 zulu time. Departure is planned for 1300Z. Flight should take about 2,5h depending on weather conditions. If you don’t have a boat, you can start in Shannon (EINN) and land in Southampton (EGHI).

Flight Plan:
EINN CML SLANY L9 STU Q63 BCN Q63 CPT Y321 PEPIS EGHI

I will check for a Discord Server as well …

Discord Server is GrumpyOldCylinders (GROC). Canotact me via Pontiac51 #7874.

It’s DONE! After many, many hours, with 4 different planes in 3 different simulators the boat is finally home again.
