Having done his research he was pleased to find that the scenery lived up to his expectations and thought this was a must have scenery.

In an effort to give something back after all these years of enjoyment, Ian has offered a series of articles that will offer hints, insights and suggestions to enrich the flight simulator experience. Here he shares the most basic of VFR navigation skills, presents a bad case of distraction and as usual presents an interesting flight to share.
