MFC0064 Coastal Alaska-Deadhorse to King Salmon (PASC-PAKN)
Deadhorse on Prudhoe Bay was the end of the line for the RTMM BWEP project. In this trip we depart Deadhorse heading west and follow the coast of Alaska to King Salmon. Alaska has an extensive coastline, longer than that of all the other US states combined. Some estimate it to be more than 49,000 miles lone, and most of it is remote and uninhabited.
This is intended to be a low level coastal flight excursion for MSFS but also works in FSX-P3D. In FSX-P3D might have to tweak an airport ICAO or two to match the sim’s airport table but most of the plans will direct you to the location of the intended airports.
Aircraft:
These are all land runways and some of the legs are a bit longer so a slightly heavier airport/helo might be in order. Either single or twin will fit the bill: IE: DHC Beaver, DHC6, Piper PA28, PC6 etc. Baron, etc. As always please use you aircraft of choice. I think I try the Kodiak in this trip..
SIM: MSFS, FSX, P3D,
Time/Weather:
Dawn or Dusk are the nicest times to fly and can yield very pretty and interesting lighting effects). If possible try live time and live weather. If not possible set your own weather and time parameters and enjoy the scenery.
Add-on Scenery:
Refer to the Add on Scenery folder in the tour download.
Tour download for this MFC0064 excursion is available from the download section and contains documentation, flight plans (.pln) for FSX/P3D/MSFS, LNM as well as static sky-vector maps links for each leg for those seeking a navigational challenge in negotiating the route by way of dead reckoning and marking position/landmarks
Tour Flight Leg Rating Conditions: IE: “6A0” or 6A1, 6A2 etc:
6=Max landing rate is -600fpm,
A=Autopilot and/or GPS use permitted: (but not recommended).
1= # of Stop-overs in the flight leg* IE: 1 = One stopover in the flight leg..
Please feel free to stop at, touch and go or fly-by any mid-airport locations or spb along the route of the flight legs (as outlined in the Cigar Box notes). There are some very scenic spots along the way as you travel coastal Alaska.
