The best place is the search button in the forum Tongue

In fact this question has already been asked quite a number of times, you should find a good list of beautifull places, even for the full default game

PS: check this topic:

Got bloom ?

Well here some that I have found...

KGEV (my home airport)
Nice route in Alaska - 5Z5 to PASW in a twin prop. have to fly over Mt. McKinney The takeoff and landing while not hard does require some effort.

The midlands area of england is rather boring Tongue

I've been meaning to fly there! I've known about the statues for years.

I have landed at Christmas Island though Roll Eyes

Can't find the Egg Heads Angry

Does anyone have seen them? Undecided

Try VOZ Complete 1.5 http://vistaoz.org/
and travel Australia in a prop, you will find many wonderful places.

Hint: I had several building crashes ( in 2800ft ! ), a known problem, you may have to uncheck crash detect.
Well, a little fault in a great scenario, I can live with this.

Give Courchevel a shot (LFLJ) I'm not telling you why you should go. You'll figure it out once you get there.

and the winner is......SYDNEY ! <music> Grin

try the lovely carribean islands , and mainly St Marteen and San Juan, then up to Florida. Notice the sunsets in Africa look the best I have....check out the mountainous regions of the world , I just got back from South America, and I can tell you taking off at over 9000" in a piston can be hard work on full tanks ! in fact the Baron would not even start without the fuel pump on hi and the throttle half open !

whant a challenge? the hardest thing I have done is land into Queenstown , New Zealand (though a mountain pass approach) , in a 747 at night or poor weather ! In fact , during the day looks best , but done blind IFR is a real buzz with the online ATC 'watching' you !

Alaska looks cool also. ....should I go on ? avoid Melbourne though , they're all hippies down there.... Grin

Has Queenstown upgraded their airport to accomodate a 747? Roll Eyes

One other place I would mention is Victoria Falls, Zimbabwe.
