I have no clue about that one, I’m talking about the real plane, although I haven’t flown the Dash myself, I can only compare the performance of that plane with the ATR.

Can one you folks experienced with long flight planning help me with a flight plan for a flight from KJFK - KLAX using a Diamond aircraft DA40NG ?
I need it for the Canon ball race happening on the Dec 26th.
I need all landing airports to refuel as part of the flight plan.
I’m not a real life pilot nor do I have much experience simming :smiley: ( Please keep that in mind while making the flight plan ). Would appreciate the help.

I got my GA back in 1987. Haven’t piloted a plane since 1990. The babies started coming and the money started going.
