MFC0038 PNW ORBX Bowerman Hub Tour (KHQM-KHQM)
(Washington-Northern Oregon)

Do you enjoy running your sim and in ORBX Add-ons? Well this trip is for you. If you have them, use them!! We visit all the surrounding ORBX airports: Freeware and Payware that encompass “Bowerman”. If you don’t have all or any, no worries as the defaults work fine. 

There is not too many RTMM here but a few but thought while we were close that couldn’t pass up this opportunity make some runs out of Bowerman and see some “eye candy” in Washington and  northern Oregon.  

Maybe by the time this tour is released just perhaps the ORBX True Earth Washington might be released? But with or without it this is a very scenic area and jammed packed with special locations. Indeed  a pleasure to fly in this scenic area. Watch for RTMM add-on scenery pieces (PNW Scenery Collation) that are near Fairchild in Northern Washington.

One more thing, all landings in this excursion are on runways: there are none on water: so for an added dimension we can even use the     C-130 is this trip.  And what better way to try out Thomas Menzel’s BWEP C-130J Paint which is on the BWEP page at RTMM. (Livery compatible in FSX through P3Dv4x.)

Some of the runways are a little snug for a C130 so here is a little info on making C-130 Short Field Landings: https://wingsoverkansas.com/alford/a833/

If you find the C-130 a bit too big for your liking this one is open to any aircraft/Helicopter in our fleet. And again, an amphibian is NOT required so this  opens up many more aircraft if you want to try them.
