Description
Welcome back, We’re in the middle of nowhere, In the department Alpes-de-Haute-Provence.
We will take-off from this grass strip and head north into the Alpes.
Make sure your plane is up for the climb. Mentally prepare yourself because this is going to be a tough one.
Don’t worry, we will have a few Practice runs with Touch and Go’s to make sure you have your airplane under control.
We will land at the altiports of L’Alpe D’Huez, Courchevel and Megeve.
Because the scenery itself is very stunning and navigating this terrain can be difficult, there won’t be much of a Narrative this leg.
Aviate, Navigate, Communicate.
In-Flight Entertainment
There will be tricky landings along the way. We recommend turning crash damage OFF.

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.
