TOUGH MAN CHALLENGE # 12

 

By Ron Jorgensen

 

FS9

 

In the past I have had you going into “holes in the ground” (M$ Mesh problems) as an adventure (?).  This Tough Man Challenge will have you coming out of some of those holes.  Aircraft is of your choice except please do not use a “Turbo” as that is not much of a problem most of the time.

 

I tried a crop duster (Transvis PL-12 Airtruk) plus others.  The PL-12 is one ugly plane (?) but it sure jumps up in the air fast.  My old trusty DHC-3 Otter has to sit by the side and watch this time.  I will be listing the departing runway to be used not the arriving runway. Most of these will have you doing a tight spiral to gain altitude.  Default everything used.  No add on’s.
