    Week 20: Tennessee
    M01>KMKL>KPHT>KBNA>KBWG

    • All destinations airfields have ILS in case of bad weather.
    • Beware high masts near Nashville KBNA.
    Download the PLN flight plan file here.
    Flight plan in tabular form, flight maps and airport diagrams here.

    CRUISE
    Speed: 165 knots
    Altitude: 3,000 ft (approx.)

    AIRCRAFT
    Fixed wing: Twin engine/twin props only. (Push-pulls like Cessna 337 and Seastar OK.)
    Rotorcraft: Twin engine or twin rotor.
    Capable of steady 165 kt cruise at 3,000 ft.
    No size limitations, but be aware that starting runway is 3800 x 75 ft.

    RESTRICTIONS
    No jets this week, sorry.


    WHICH VERSION, CLASSIC OR STEAM?
    We will be using Classic FSX, not Steam. We will continue to use Classic in future weeks for the Great 48! until more critical add-ons are working, at which point we'll move to Steam.

    WEATHER
    Default weather OK.
    Real-life weather generators encouraged (e.g. FSrealWX lite, Active Sky Next).
    Note: I will be using Active Sky Next and will call active runways accordingly.

    SCENERY
    Default OK.
    Highly recommended: FSgenesis US landclass (inexpensive payware).
    FTX Global 1.30 and Vector 1.20 good but optional (expensive payware).
    Vector users please see recommendations here.
    There are no Orbx/FTX Global airports on this week's flight.
