OOC - when 'soon' becomes 'now' - where would one find these missions?

Some references on the "Pacha Mama".....

"Pachamama is a goddess revered by the indigenous people of the Andes. Pachamama is usually translated as "Mother Earth" but a more literal translation would be "Mother world" (in Aymara and Quechua mama = mother / pacha = world or land; and later spread fairly modern as the cosmos or the universe).[1] Pachamama and Inti are the most benevolent deities and are worshiped in parts of the Andean mountain ranges, also known as Tawantinsuyu (stretching from present day Ecuador to Chile and Argentina).

In Inca mythology, Mama Pacha or Pachamama is a fertility goddess who presides over planting and harvesting. She causes earthquakes. Her husband was either Pacha Camac or Inti, depending on the source. Llamas are sacrificed to her. After conquest by Catholic Spain her image was masked by the Virgin Mary, behind whom she is invoked and worshiped in the Aboriginal ritual, in some parts of Argentina, Chile, Bolivia and Peru (Merlino y Rabey 1992).[2]

Since Pachamama is a "good mother", people usually toast to her honor before every meeting or festivity, in some regions by spilling a small amount of chicha on the floor, before drinking the rest. This toast is called "challa" and it's made almost everyday. Pachamama has a special worship day called "Martes de challa" (Challa's Tuesday) where people bury food, throw candies, burn incense. In some cases, celebrants assist traditional priests, known as "yatiris" in Aymara, in performing ancient rites to bring good luck or the good will of the goddess, such as sacrificing guinea pigs or burning llama fetuses (although these last two are no longer very common)."

When making a Mission or an "Adventure Flight" I usually read about the area I will fly in, its geography, its myths and lore, cities and towns of the area and always the music in it....this helps me in the development of the adventure...then when I fly it..it all comes together: The flight I see on the screen and all the pictures in my mind, I usually play the music too....this makes the Adventure very real and fun.....try it. :)

Anyone made the flight? After landing in SPHO I saw no Exp.-team!
In WP Rio-111-and 112-area----no statues.
Looking in mission/szenery-folder-- :-? Maybe any XML-file encluding the exactly positions of addon-objects is missed

Soon in a sim near you..........

I've flown a few of your missions and they are quite a lot of fun - Thanx!!

May I make a suggestion - can you provide an estimate of the time to complete the mission in the package? There are times when I might have a little time to get in some flying and I hate to start a mission and stop it. Knowing the approx time to complete would be a big help.

Thanx!

Vic
