Seaplane Tour(!SEE NOTES BEFORE SIGNING UP!)

Description:

An out and back tour for float/amphibian-type aircraft  only. The tour follows the Pacific West Coast from Yakutat, down to Seattle and then back up to Metlakatla. Please make sure you have read the notes* below before commencing.

*NOTES: 

1. In X Plane some runway starting positions will place the aircraft on land instead of in the water. To get round this select a different parking and taxi to your departure point.

2. There are alternative ICAO codes for some airports which are used by different simulators. These have been checked against the Fly Away World Airport Database but cannot be checked for all simulators.
Pilots are strongly advised to check the airports exist in their chosen simulator before commencing the tour otherwise you may not be able to complete the tour. Please report any issues or discrepancies to Clint Peake so these can be addressed if possible.

Known discrepancies:
YTB aka CAY4
YTG aka CAV5
