A little over a year ago Shaun Lunt was killed doing what he loved, flying in Alaska. He shared the state's beauty through his pictures that he posted on his site, with the rest of the world.

This tour will start at Felts Field in Washington and end in Fairbanks, Alaska. It will be cut up into 15 hops, most under an hour in length.

Flight Plan:

Where: KSFF -> WA63 for the first hop.

When: Friday, July 10th at 3pm EST/8pm GMT.

What to Fly: Small prop with short field abilities. I'm flying the Piper Super Cub found on this site. It is for FS9/FSX.

Weather: I'll use real-world weather.

Hope to see you there!

At least this way, we know we'll have a nice solid Multi player schedule this summer/fall. Wink

I hope to make it to all of these.

Online is starting to come alive again. Cool

Well, I have FSX, but the PC I have it installed on is not connected to the internet because our crappy duplex they we rent doesn't have internet connection in the living room. So... I have to get a wireless reciever for it. Plus I work out of town and won't get back for 1 more week.

I recommend looking over a sectional chart for the areas we will fly over.
Here is a website that will let you overlay sectional charts in Google Earth.
http://www.wikihow.com/Overlay-Sectional-Aeronautical-Charts-in-Google-Earth

I will be flying the tour with real-world weather and limited fuel. Since many airports up north do not have fuel, I will be flying a Super Cub with a 'belly-tank'. In order to refill from the tank I will have to land, so that means putting it down where ever the ground is flat enough... Wink

And when we get up to Alaska I may land whenever I see something interesting... Grin

No autopilot here, hill-hoppin' all the way! Grin

I found out today that on Friday the utility poles outside of my house will be replaced, so I will not have internet most of the day... Embarrassed

But it should be backup sometime in the afternoon. So if I'm not there just go on without me, I will hopefully be on at some point... Wink
