This was quite a big sim weekend for me due to feeling a bit ill. One flight I took screenshots on today was from Interlaken to Sion, in Switzerland. I can thank Relax from Flightsim.com for recommending this flight.
On the climbout of Interlaken, it would seem that you need to make an early right turn so you don't have to head up a steep valley. Apparently I didn't know this!
Interlaken behind me, the scenery is really good here. I check with a few photos, it's pretty accurate too.
Interlaken is named very appropriately - it's wedged right between two lakes.
Interlaken to my right
Cruising on up past Reichenbach. I need to go this way and over a mountain range to drop down into the Rhone valley, where Montana and Sion are at.
I took the left path at the fork
I ended up in a wide open forest area for a bit, but I realised I had gone the wrong way, and headed left for the mountain range, which I think is called the Bernese Alps.
Now at Montana, a small town in the Rhone Valley, to the east of Sion.
Downwind, Sion.
Touchdown and Parking.
This really was one of the best flights I've had in a while - I might do some more simming there tomorrow if I have time.
