100% Always recommended to do the bush trips in their entirety. But in the event that you need to Re-Fly a leg because of this reason or that reason, it's nice having the ability to fly direct if you need to :)

I disagree - partially at least - I don't think it ruins it at all, it's a different way to fly the flights, some bush flying is indeed about flying through the valleys and canyons as you mention, but other times it's about the destination, landing on short unimproved airstrips, or flying high enough to take in more of the scenery, or just flying bush planes with friends. People can fly the trip how they see fit. I know some pilots in real life would do the same - flying through tight valleys when my plane could fly over it is not the choice I personally would make; but that's the wonders of the simulator, you can do what you want, the guide was simply designed to help those that may have had questions about specific things, or those that struggled to follow the log (It's not for everyone). Doing the trips was one of the most enjoyable sets of flights I've flown in a long time, flying high or low.

Flying Direct is a good way for people to get the achievement if thats their sole reason for doing the bush trip

@@danielthompson6010 True, also another reason to do it.

I agree, but if you dont have a large amount of time and want to finish it in one day, it is always good to go direct on 1 or 2 smaller legs

Tail draggers :-b

You're welcome, that is an odd one!

4. Easier compared to Option 3: Use an app like ForeFlight, plug in the airports on the leg you are flying, use Flight Events to connect MSFS and Foreflight and you can track your exact location and head toward your destination.

You're welcome, yeah 8 hours is quite a while, especially when you have to land and takeoff multiple times in that duration.

On Nexus there is a 94 hour Bush trip, around the world!.

Thank you!

That could be very frustrating for sure! Glad we could help ya get "un-stuck" :)

I ran out on one leg and had to land on the highway. After finding the repair and refuel solution I argued that I'd waved down a car who helped me out in refuelling and so flew on from there.

Glad it helped! It's very confusing and overwhelming at first!

Was a bit of a side-effect of accidentally recording my mic too quiet, but it worked out I suppose.

Many thanks!

Thank you!

Glad to hear it! :)

Thanks for the tip! :)

So glad it helped out! :) Thanks tons!

Thanks for watching! :)

Thank you!

Thank you tons! :)

Yes, you have to land at every runway, I do not believe it matters which direction you land, but you need to stop on the runway, then the sim will freeze for a second and then go to a menu

To answer my own question, yes . . . If you save your flight at Banff, BC, the next time you reload the flight the aircraft will re-spawn on the runway threshold., ready for takeoff.

I had issues with one of the later legs of tge US bush trip so I just googled the starting airfield to the destination and somewhat planned it out manually. The distance between the 2 points and the time to get between the 2. I tried to keep the same speed to get the timing close.

I can't get in to record right now, but here's a quick image I made in paint to better illustrate it, the runway is the rectangular outline i.imgur.com/ATpYoQw.jpg

This one was very difficult for me as well, sad thing is I live 6 miles from there at one point.

I've got the same issue but with the balkans one. The only thing I can think of is, I did crash a few times I chose load from last checkpoint rather than start of leg. Not sure... just clutching at straws. Also not sure if they updated the navigation but I get white lines showing the route in my plane where other youtube videos don't show these. I've set navigation to true to life but still have the white lines showing the route.

They must have changed it because I paused a bush flight in the air, went to the main menu and closed the game. Came back the next day and I was in the same spot frozen in the air.

If you're doing the Bush Trip challenges the white line should appear. Something may be bugged! Be sure to center your view on the VFR Map to your aircraft to make sure you're looking in the correct area ~

@@SimulatedAviation thank you! it's confuse me for a long time

Unfortunately, it may have gotten moved off-screen, I had an issue with that; when I moved it the log ended up way up in the corner and now I can't 'reach it' with the mouse. I am not sure how to fix that.

@@pilotben97 found a solution, you can reset the panels in the option menu on top.

@@Vaillant44 Nice, glad you got that figured out

Vaillant 44 I regularly experience this and there's not even the options menu. I think it's a bug. I have to quit out of bush trip and then it gives me the option to restart that leg and all's fixed.

I can't get in to record right now, but here's a quick image I made in paint to better illustrate it, the runway is the rectangular outline i.imgur.com/ATpYoQw.jpg

@@pilotben97 thank you so much i have been trying to land on every thing that remotely looks like an airstrip in that area in desperation:).

Its the one with the 2 buildings. He zooms into it at 12:27

Uhohhh No Buenoo :(

Do you know if the fuel problem has been fixed or do you still have to set up a hot key? Just downloaded a few days ago . A lot to take in.

Will definitely give Copper Canyon, Mexico a look! :) Glad ya enjoyed it!

Mine stopped recognizing landings as soon as I updated the new patch last week...it doesn't work anymore

Uhoh!

I have the same problem with regards to the landing challenges. I have a rating on all of the ones required, yet says I only have 87%. I saw a tip somewhere to check each airport involved in the logbook and make sure it just says LANDINGS 1 and has 0 in take offs because if you land and bounce too high, it counts it as a touch and go and fails it. Whether this is true or not, im unsure but am going to check it out later.

I’m trying to figure out how to reset the Patagonia trip because I did use autopilot and my GPS systems to get there. Completed the whole trip but It didn’t give me the achievement

Don't believe so, hopefully in the future they'll have some night trips! We're creating some bush flight plans you could do on your own of course if you ever fancy that ~

They do not currently. I think the assumption is you're stopping every couple legs for overnights and to sleep and flying only during the day. Night flights would be kinda unrealistic in the cub as it has nothing for IFR flight. Maybe for the other aircraft they could do it, but again it's all supposed to be VFR.

@@cebrady yea, I thought about that too. Plus the fact that the Bush Trips are meant to be about sightseeing and whatnot. I still think it'd be sweet if we had some really early morning dawn, and dusk scenarios. Just to change it up a bit

I'm not sure how to do it if you are on the first leg, I know that if you make it to the first airport+ you can switch legs and click "reset from", but I'm not sure about how to do it on the first leg

@@pilotben97 Thanks man. I see know that there is a reset after you complete a leg. I guess my ocd kicked in and didn't want to got through completion only to reset. I ended up just deleting the folder for the trip and it seems to have worked without any issues.

If only we knew Spanish :(

Puede que ya sepas todo esto, pero lo diré por si acaso. Mi idioma es el inglés, pero configuro el idioma de mi simulador de vuelo en español para ayudarme a aprender. (Opciones-> General-> Varios-> Idioma-> Espanol) Cambia tu lenguaje al español en simulador en el menú general y sigue el registro de navegación, solo establece el rumbo de navegación y realiza un seguimiento del tiempo usando el reloj de navegación en el registro. Es más fácil ver el rumbo desde la vista de la cámara fuera del avión si las instrumentos de navegación del avión se muestran cuando está en la vista de la cámara exterior. Los rumbos generalmente seguirán una carretera, pero cuando establezco el rumbo, puedes mirar una característica distante como el pico de una montaña y simplemente continuar en esa dirección durante el período de tiempo indicado en el registro de navegación. Las imágenes de los aeropuertos son muy útiles porque puede utilizar los hitos visuales circundantes para encontrar pistas de aterrizaje. (Los puntos de referencia visuales pueden ser muy sutiles.) Espero no confundirte ni cometer errores de lenguaje. ¡Buena suerte!

@@rogers8890 tu Español es excelente, muchas gracias por el consejo
