With flying solo I thought I would change the route up, instead of flying over a few airports I was able to fly over a handful of castles with keeping the shape of the route rather similar to what you folks had set up.

I enjoyed the architecture of the castles for scenery.

Nice route. I’ll take my Kodiak 100 for this flight. See you later on air.

Yesterday was a great, second community flight-in (for me). I would share some Screenshots with you.

It was a really good event as usual, felt a little bit more special as the destination was my home country. :slightly_smiling_face: I have to admit, one of the POIs of the route, the Miska Huszár statue, I haven’t heard about it until World Update XIV was released. :exploding_head: But this summer I was on vacation with my girlfriend near Pákozd so we visited the real thing. Who said you can’t learn new things from video games? :sunglasses:
