Sahara 1 – Marrakech to Zarzis v1.0
Now that Bushtrips have been mostly fixed I share this journey with you.
This is the first of a two stage journey across North Africa. We visit imperial cities, ancient Medinas, and Kasbahs, taking in a few ancient monuments on the way. Some locations we visit are not on the tourist trails I apologise in advance for any spelling variations or any other inaccuracies. We travel across the cruel Sahara desert but we also visit the refreshing Mediterranean. Make sure you have your map handy (LittleNavMap is my preferred guide) as well as your sun glasses and water bottle. Don’t forget to fill up with fuel on the way.
We start our trip from Menara airport in Marrakech Marocco and head generally eastwards visiting coastal and desert cities. We cross some stunning landscapes and visit locations where Star Wars was filmed. We finish at Zarzis a resort on the Mediterranean. Don’t miss out on the second trip which starts here.
Bushtrips have recently been mostly fixed. I find that I can use GPS and progress is saved after each leg. However if I need to exit the program I make sure I complete a leg and start the next one on the runway before exiting. I also found if I land in between airports and exit, progress is also saved however Navlog did get scrambled if I was in DEV Mode. Of course your experience may be different!
We fly in the Daher TBM 930. The trip has 8 legs and is 1247nm long. We have an early start, it gives you a little time for sightseeing.
Tip:
Turn off Inert Sep when in the air. This keeps debris out of the engine on take off, turning it off reduces drag giving you a little extra speed.
Installation:
Unpack the included folder from the package into the community folder. Restart the simulator.
Add-ons:
There may be add-ons available, however other than the GARMIN G1000 NXI I did not use any during this trip.
