FBZ's Fast Flight's
Bogota, Columbia: SKBO to SKPE
This hop of FBZ's Fast Flight's takes us to South America. We'll be taking off from El Dorado Intl. (SKBO), in Bogota, Columbia, and head west to Matecana (SKPE). The image to the left shows the area I putted around in. I have the South America Mesh loaded up that Peter Pilmain has developed. There are 21 files in
all. Click Here to go to fsimcafe to download the files if you wish. Peter has done an excellent job rendering the terrain for South America, and I highly recommend it. I've got to warn you though, even with Broadband, downloads are going to take awhile, so while you're downloading, come back and catch up on your reading of the articles and reviews on Farmboyzim's Flight Sim's!
The terrain is varied and visually stunning. One moment you're flying over green, verdant land, the next moment will find you over rugged hills and deep canyons and escarpments. This is an area that I just don't think you will find boring to fly in! There's so much variation in landscape within such a short distance that within one flight, you definitely give your eyes a lot to look at! I think Bogota Intl Airport is a great place to start from for these adventures in this area. This will give you the opportunity to pick either something suited for low and slow sight-seeing, or jump into something a bit faster. The runway is long enough to accommodate whatever you may choose. Within reason of course! I don't think an Airbus 380 would "fit" at this particular airport! For this flight, I chose the Embraer AT-27 Tucano, in Columbian AF livery. A great aircraft that will be showing up in the Downloads Library soon! I hope you enjoy flying in this area as much as I did! FBZ...\l/
