The best place is the search button in the forum :P
In fact this question has already been asked quite a number of times, you should find a good list of beautifull places, even for the full default game :)

Well here some that I have found...

KGEV (my home airport)
Nice route in Alaska - 5Z5 to      PASW in a twin prop.  have to fly over Mt. McKinney The takeoff and landing while not hard does require some effort.

The midlands area of england is rather boring  :P

Give Courchevel a shot (LFLJ) I'm not telling you why you should go. You'll figure it out once you get there.

and the winner is......SYDNEY !         ;D


try the lovely carribean islands , and mainly St Marteen and San Juan, then up to Florida.   Notice the sunsets in Africa look the best I have....check out the mountainous regions of the world , I just got back from South America, and I can tell you taking off at over 9000" in a piston can be hard work on full tanks !  in fact the Baron would not even start without the fuel pump on hi and the throttle half open !

whant a challenge?  the hardest thing I have done is land into Queenstown , New Zealand (though a mountain pass approach) , in a 747 at night or poor weather !  In fact , during the day looks best , but done blind IFR is a real buzz with the online ATC 'watching' you !  

Alaska looks cool also. ....should I go on ?   avoid Melbourne though , they're all hippies down there.... ;D ;D :D :o
