Don't know the routes, but in Canada there are lots of airport in some steep valleys that i like to touch and go on.

There are some nice islands in the south pacific, east of NZ. I flew from the bottom of them up to near AUS. Good idea to miss some out as they are long hops over endless sea.

looking goods so far!

Any chance people can not say google for charts as charts arnt always found by google

[StephenM]

I never use google for charts. Always EuroControl for Europe, or the local VATSIM related site for charts elsewhere.

[killian320]

I meant google as a verb "Google the charts"

Sorry for the confusion.

Maths is so difficult

I know what you meant, im just saying that you cannot find all the charts that you want on google. for example the other day i searched for OMDB charts and didnt find any at all.

My favourite-

ROUTE: SBSP - SBRJ - SBSP
VFR/IFR: IFR
TYPE OF FLIGHT: SBSP is on a plateau in the middle of Sao Paolo while SBRJ is an island Rio De Janeiro. Both runways are barely long enough for a 737. Both have SID's and STAR's that must be adhered to for safety reasons. They are both close to international airports.
AIRCRAFT TYPE: B737-700, B737-400, or A320
AIRLINE: GOL, Varig, TAM have daily flights on this route.

ROUTE: TNCM-TFFJ
VFR/IFR: VFR
TYPE OF FLIGHT: Short 5-10min hop from St Maarten to St Barts. St Barts is a short runway with a steep approach over a hill at one end or an approach right behind a beach at the other.
AIRCRAFT TYPE: C208/DHC-6/Do228 or anything GA.
AIRLINE: Winair or Air Caraibes
OTHER LINKS: To work best you'll need FlyTampa's St Maarten, which you can buy here (I would THOROUGHLY reccommend it-or any of FT's sceneries!):

ROUTE: NZCH-NZQN
VFR/IFR: IFR
TYPE OF FLIGHT: Fly from Christchurch to Queenstown. QN is NZ's (if not the world's) adventure capital. The airport is no exception, with the STAR approach consisting of joining overhead and then a tight 140-170 degree turn in a mountain basin to line up with the runway. The approach is best done VFR on a fine day.
AIRCRAFT TYPE: Boeing 737-300 (Air New Zealand or Qantas/Jetconnect), 737-800 (Pacific Blue or Qantas) or A320 (ANZ)
AIRLINE: As above.
