You haven't really flown the Grand Canyon until you've fallowed the river in #3 at 100ft AGL in a fighter-jet from one end to the other. ;) :D

Great looking shots! Boeing Guy is right...the Acceleration default F/A-18 is good for canyon flight!

Decided to try a small nimble jet on my 1st attempt.....
Got these shots right before I fireballed into the canyonside ;D
Great suggestion, very fun ;)

I have absolutely no knowledge or skill in regards to mission making but, if I did........
Lake Mead to Lake Powell timed checkpoint race with either a carrier landing in Lake Powell or a terra firma at a nearby airport to stop the timer.
Anybody? Sounds like fun to me ;)
