Description
We have made it out of the Alps! But that doesn’t mean we’re clear of the mountains.
First we will make our way West through the mesmerizing ‘Parc naturel regional de Vercors’ with beautiful cliffs.
We will fly through the Rhone valley, visiting the famous Hermitage vineyard and fly North to Lyon where we will have a quick stop.
After that we will head back into the Massif Central through Saint-Etienne, along the Loire river and finally head East towards our destination Clermont-Ferrand.
In-Flight Entertainment
We will land a few times along the way to make sure you still have what it takes, these are all official aerodromes/airports. We recommend turning crash damage OFF.
Recommended Addons

Additional Addons

ABOUT LOADING FLIGHT PLANS
We recommend NOT changing the spawn location before loading in, as it can possibly overwrite the flight plan, turning it into a straight DIRECT GPS flight, or the autopilot will not follow it. Leave the flight plan as is, spawn on the runway and park somewhere nearby until take-off.
