Flight #3
NOTAMS

:small_airplane: Weather. Sunny and mild in northwestern Syria this week. Should be great for Live Weather.

:small_airplane: Time. Let’s do another daytime flight.

:small_airplane: Aircraft. TBM is the default today, but any aircraft that can sustain 185 KTAS will be fine.

:small_airplane: Notes. This is the largest stretch of “desert” that we will see on this tour. That said, the landscape is well-rendered in the simulator, and has its own beauty. Make sure you water your camels first, though.
