Whats your favorite flight plan?

David that sounds like a good one to me, I will give it a try when I get
some "stick time"

I have two favourite short haul routes which I love flying in a 737 with a
suitable livery. One is in my native UK from Southampton in the south of
England to Jersey in the Channel islands - takes about 35mins so doing the
return is quite feasible. The other is from Milan Malpensa over the Alps to
Zurich about 40 mins. I much prefer short haul and if I had ever been lucky
enough to have been a RL pilot that is what I would have wanted to do.

It seems to be about 185 nm - I presume that 70 minutes is from
gate-to-gate time for a Beechcraft 1900?

If you like flying in Japan try :

Rishiri Island (RJER) - Wakkanai (RJCR) - Asashigawa (RJEC) - Shin Chitose
(RJCC) - Hakodate (RJCH)

Great weather forcast for today and this weekend, great fun flying. Snow,
Rain, Wind, Fog, Overcast, most airports at minimum or below.

From Hakodate continue South until you eventually land a Naha, Okinawa,
Japan (NOAH).

Don't forget stops in Honshuu, Shikoku, Kyushu and Mami O Shima.

Really good Ramin in Northern Japan. Good Fugu in Kyushu, land at Fukuoka,
highly recommended.

Report back on how you liked your trip!

I like the Atlantic hop - anywhere USA, something like KBGR (Bangor,
Maine) to CYYR Goose Bay, then over to BGBW, then BIRK (always fun
with real wx on!), then off to Stornaway or Prestwick (EGPO and EGPK,
respectively). From there, anywhere in Europe you desire. Of
course, the trip back is fun too - headwinds seem to go both ways up
there...

I believe IRL the slots are limited for IFR flights, but I've never
flown it IRL.

Most of the times I've flown this in the sim with real wx, the
approaches into CYYR, BIRK and EGPO have usually been real fun - IFR
almost down to the minimums with good surface winds to make you feel
like you actually accomplished something.

For short flights, KLAS Vegas -D-> KDEN Denver (or Minneapolis KMSP
for a longer hop) is a fun flight, Denver's about 5200-feet ASL.

Another fast/busy flight (especially with a Boeing 737 or 777), and a
fast high-altitude climb) is KFSO/San Francisco -D-> to KSAN/San
Diego, and more fun if the (IFR) flight-plan is created over mountain
areas east of San Diego.

I like these round the world plans. Currently I'm flying my PSS 333RR on
http://www.worldflight.ozflight.com....g/schedule.php

Some legs are short (427 NM), but everything is mapped out for you.

A nice one I remember was from Juneau to KSFO, did a low-level IFR
cruise in the Learjet.
