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, Washington and end in Fairbanks, Alaska. It will be cut up into 15 hops, most under an hour in length.

Flight Plan:

Where: WA63 -> CAL3 for hop #2.

When: Friday, July 17th 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.

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

Hope to see you there!

Only Paul was there... Undecided

Still a nice flight though!

Lots of hills and trees on the way, and a nice big lake with towns all around... I enjoyed it!

Sorry I had to work today. I'm working at in the maintenance hanger at my local airfield and I also had a flight lesson after work.

I'm going to have to moved the tour to the weekends either before or after Shane's tour.
