Falklands Fantasy Tour(XPlane only - for reason see description)

Falklands Fantasy Tour(XPlane only - for reason see description)

Description:

REASON WHY XPLANE ONLY! 
It only became apparent after the design of this tour that only two of the thirteen airfields exist in FSX/P3d and that consequently the tour would not be viable on those platforms. An extensive search for freeware scenery was carried out but nothing useful was found except for some mesh/landclass scenery for FSX - https://library.avsim.net/search.php?SearchTerm=Falkland+islands&CatID=fsxscen.

Also only four airfields exist in MSFS 2020.

Whilst we always strive to be inclusive of all platforms, this tour is only known to be flyable in XPlane and even then it really needs the Prefab Airports addon plugin to bring it to life. It would have been a shame to scrap it and waste all the effort so here it is; a kind of throwaway "easter egg" for XP users.

-------------------------------------------------------------

A circular GA mini-tour of the Falkland Islands.

13 legs with an average leg distance of 47nm.

11 of the 13 airfields are 2D so the Prefab Airfields plugin is highly recommended in order to maximise the experience (hence why the word "Fantasy" has been included in the title). However, this renders some of the airfield topography, ahem..... interesting.
