MFS0002 Whittier to Whitehorse-Alaska Glacier Series
This trip is a glacier exploration trip from Whittier, Alaska via some of the rugged and scenic glaciers, rivers and lakes which surround the Chugach National Park . Sixteen legs later we will reach our destination of Whitehorse Yukon, Canada.
This is intended to be a low level and scenic flight excursion for MSFS but also works in FSX/P3D. You’ll need your hands on that stick to fly this rugged glacier terrain!
This excursion has 16 legs - a total distance of 1529.1 nm.
Aircraft:
Any non-turbo prop will do. IE: C172, C182, PA28, XCUB, XSVC, XVGR, ZLIN, etc.
SIM:
MSFS (FSUIPC 7.0.x required) but also works for FSX/P3D.
Time/Weather: (Dawn or Dusk are the nicest times to fly and can yield very pretty and interesting lighting effects). If possible, Live Weather, if not there are many presets.

Tour download for this MFS0002 excursion is available and contains flight plans (.pln), lnm waypoint plans (.lnmpln) for any added user-waypoints for display in lnm, as well as sky-vector maps links for each leg for those seeking a navigational challenge to negotiate the route by way of dead reckoning and marking landmarks.
Please feel free to stop at, touch and go or fly-by any mid-airport locations along the route of the flight legs (outlined in the Cigar Box notes). There are some great spots along the way! I hope you thoroughly enjoy “flying the terrain” in this excursion.
