Welcome To Alaska! Home of the midnight sun, narrow passages, high mountains, quaint towns and some of the most beautiful scenery in the world. It is also home to some of the most skilled aviators in the world, the Alaskan Bush Pilot. It is a place often so remote that if your plane goes down, your childrenrsquo;s children might be the onersquo;s that are told they found your aircraft. As part of your assignment, go to www.hulu.com (free, region limited) or YouTube.com and watch the movie ldquo;The Snow Walkerrdquo; about an Alaskan Bush Pilot. It will define the word ldquo;remoterdquo; Alaska. I have had the privilege of visiting all but one of todayrsquo;s stops and have traveled the whole length of inside passage from Vancouver Island north. It is one of the reasons I bring you this Hamburger Flight and share my passion for flying in this area to you the listener. This flight will introduce you to flying some of the northern section of the Inside Passage. It is likely 90 minutes of flying depending on the performance of the aircraft. It is back to basics again with ldquo;NO GPSrdquo; and propeller driven single or twin-engine aircraft. As a treat for our listeners that still do most of their flying in FS2004, I have included special 2004 scenery that will really enhance your experience. I use this scenery, I love it, and would suggest all FSX users give this flight a try in FS2004 using this scenery. The scenery even includes special traffic and moving Cruise Ships! Departure Point You have a buddy that that is in town from the lower states. He is staying in Haines on business. Fly over from Skagway, pick him, grab a hamburger in Honnah and then drop him at the airport in Juneau for his flight back home. Great chance to show him the beauty of Alaska from the air.
