Flightplan/Schedule:
Aspen-Pitkin Co./Sardy Airport, Colorado, USA
http://www.airnav.com/airport/KASE
TO
Jackson Hole Airport, Jackson, Wyoming, USA
http://www.airnav.com/airport/KJAC
Distance:
Approx 315 nautical miles.
Flight Time:
Approx 1 hour, 10 minutes.
(depends on weather)
Weather Settings:
Highly suggest using built-in Real World Weather feature.
If you do not want to do that, then I would suggest "fair skies" or "cold fronts" theme.
Addons:
Aspen
aspen04.zip
Jackson Hole
jksnhole04.zip
Mesh:
fsg_dem38m_usrk_co.zip (Most of Colorado, except plains)
fsg_dem38m_usrk_wy.zip (Most of Wyoming, except western edge)
fsg_dem38m_usrk_eid.zip (Covers the remaining portion of Wyoming, containing Jackson region.)
Server:
Simviation's (see stickies at top of multiplayer forum)
Notes:
The flight is much more challenging and visually appealing if you at least get the mesh. If you do not want to bother with the airports, that's fine, but the mesh is highly recommended! As stated earlier, the flight is over 300 miles, and just a word of warning, the flight is very enjoyable in the mountainous areas, but there is a portion of desert that we will cross for a while, and that can be rather dull, especially without mesh.
Also, I would suggest, when approaching Jackson, that you load up one of the GPS approaches for the field, and stay at or above 10,000 until turning onto a long final approach.
