MISSION CREATOR TIPES

Before flying this mission, make sure have practiced a landing and taking off at Crouchevel, a go-around will be very tricky if not impossible.
The Crouchevel airport is not recognised by FSX as a legitimate airport, I don’t know why not.
I created a fly through gate close to the airport, after passing through it, land.
Fly through the set of gates given, the altitudes given by the Mission pointers are misleading, so use your skills to fly through them.
Remember that flying straight lines from gate to gate will not be possible; adjust your altitude and heading as required by the scenery.
You will make all necessary radio calls, tread Crouchevel airport as unmanned.

INTRO

You are an experienced pilot who hires yourself out to fly tourists through the beautiful Alp scenery.

Today, you are hired to fly a couple of tourists to the Crouchevel Mountain Resort in the Alps to do some site seeing, Crouchevel is listed as one of the most dangerous airports in the world. The Airport is home to an extremely short uphill runway (1722 feet) with a vertical drop at the end.  Arriving at Geneva with you Cessna 172, you notice that it is getting pretty windy, which will make the flight all the more interesting.  Waiting for your passengers you plot an IFR route through over the mountains to Crouchevel, as the passenger get on board they request a low flying route and you file a new VFR route through the valley towards Crouchevel.  From Crouchevel, the tourists have requested to be taken back to Aix-les-Bains where they are staying in a hotel.

THE MISSION

The mission starts at a parking bay at Geneva, cancel your IFR plan and file a VFR plan, request clearance for departure, after clearance at the runway, take-off.  You have re-plotted the GPS with the VFR flight.  After landing at Crouchevel, give your passengers an hour or so to walk around and for you to recover from the hectic landing and taxiing.  Take off again and turn left as indicated by the mission pointer.  Follow the gates to Aix-les-Bains airport.   Remember flying through clouds during a VFR flight is not aloud so stay clear of them as far as possible.
