    Intro
    Welcome to Mountain Snake Flights.
    Some pilots say this is the journey of a life time. Others say it will take a life time.
    This is a VFR flight. We will be flying mainly by hand following the route as a guide.
    The main goal of these flights is to enjoy the scenery. Low and slow is the game here.

    We have already done a some of the legs of this flight and we started at KBIL-Billings MT. We will not be starting at KBIL, and we will continue where we left off. Please feel free to do the any previous legs yourself.


    Multiplayer Platform

    Full installation is required before the flight starts.
    Ensure you are using the correct type codes as noted below.
    Quick Start Guide

    Flight Plan

    You may use this Skyvector map to use as a guide.

    I will be flying a Cessna 182 Skylane(Shown as C172 in SimLink)

    Scenery
    Flagstaff(KFLG) and Grand Canyon(KGCN) are Orbx airports. Orbx scenery library and North American airports freeware are required to see the added modifications.
    Grand Canyon scenery recommended for this leg. It is also required for next week's flight. (Download time from Rikoooo.com takes about 3 hours! or less if registered.)
    Default scenery is acceptable if you don't mind missing out on all of the beauty.
    Expect some scenery differences with other pilots. No Orbx regions tonight.

    I will be using Active Sky Next.
    Please use a real world weather source unless conditions are unfavorable.
    Fair conditions is also acceptable.

    *Time Sync is not a requirement

    NOTAM
    Performance Check! High altitude take-offs and landings around 7,000ft!
    Try not to overtake the flight lead by over 8 miles. (I dont mind you going ahead or landing first, just not too far ahead please.)
