I find it laborious to find areas where you could have many good detailed (freeware) airports and nice sceneries. MSFS world map is not good at searching such areas, and Flightsim.to does have scenery map feature, but it does too much clustering to be useful. I would like to see focused recommendations, not just “Alaska” or “The Alps”. I am after short (15-30 NM) distances between airports. One source is Bush trips, included and add-ones, but those often do not include list of detailed airports download links.
Your suggestions?

While it’s nice to see beautiful and interesting places to visit, I wish there was a way to know where the most challenging airstrips are.

There comes a time when Lukla and St. Barts just get old. What I usually do is just randomly visit airstrips, hopping from one to another and hoping I’ll run into something cool. The…

I’m probably as mad as a wombat for starting this, but I’ve been thinking about it for a while, so let’s see how it goes!
Here is a Google Sheet with some of my favourite airports. MSFS Top Airport Addons - Google Sheets
Let’s all add ours and see what comes out on top!
It’s planned as a compliment to my other 2 Top Charts topics (Aircraft Addons and World Enhancement mods).
I’m going to do it a bit differently to those though. Partly as a test to see if I can streamline my work for t…

I could add a lot more but see if this is heading the right direction?
P.S. you may want to correct the spelling mistakes in your post title (Manu, Irports )
