Bush Pilots Division
Toughman Challenge 2
Bill Odell
While doing
research for the next Toughman Challenge, Ron Jorgensen sent me the following
list of flights to fly. After flying just
half of them I was sure that I had found the next Toughman. When we suggested that the Alaska Division
be renamed the Bush Pilot Division, the intent was to show that Bush Flying is
not restricted to Alaska and Canada, and here is the example that I had been
looking for. If you thought Challenge
Nr. 1 was tough wait till you wade through this.
I must add here that we have been having
troubles with some of the Adventures, they don’t work in all versions of FS,
and there is not much we can do about that (similar to the aircraft problems),
this adventure is for FS 2004 and FS 2002.
If you find in any of the adventures that an airport is not there, just
consider that Mayor Daley was there and work around it, by selecting another
airport nearby.
Aircraft to be
used should be a Bush Plane, Ron used a Cessna, I am not especially fond of a
Cessna so I used a Beaver. The
challenge is:

A suggestion for the last two flights, fly to VNLD then fly north up through the valleys.
We also expect you to fly the return on all flights, that is if you can.
Thanks,
