Arequipa, Peru to La Paz, Bolivia

You (Gann) and Parks are on a mission to deliver a new Lockheed Lodestar from the US to Rio de Janeiro. You've traveled down thru Central America and the west coast of South America, and have now arrived at Arequipa.

The mission begins on the ramp at Arequipa with the engines started. Your tanks are full, because fuel gets more scarce and more expensive the further you get away from the coast. Use the default ATC, if you like. The weather isn't pretty, but you'll soon be above it. Parks has made the trip before, but you (Gann) are doing the flying.

Navigation

Leaving the airport,try to gather up some altitude before turning back to the east. The ground rises quicker than you realize. Keep your eyes on the gauges, an engine out on this leg is a sure fatality, but you'll need all the power you have.

Try to navigate in this mission by using only what was truely available, the ADF and your eyes. Although there probably wasn't one on the real flight, the autopilot may be of some help.

Communications

There are no ATC communications in this flight. You will receive instructions via text messages on the left of the screen, preceded by a chime or tone. Be sure to turn on text in your settings. You can use the default ATC for take-off and landing, if you desire.
