CRK 2021: a space odysseyDescription: Let’s get spacey…. July 2021, the month two eccentric billionaires took their own crafts into space paving the way for space tourism and commercial travel outside Earth’s atmosphere. As tribute to their achievements, this tour has you hopping to and from 20 of the world’s spaceports via the closest interoceanic-capable airport. This space-themed tour is also a sequel to the Circadian Rhythm Killer (CRK) Tour with some lengthy flights taking 18-21 hours to complete. Those who flew the first CRK Tour may remember almost all flights going from west to east. This time you’ll fight the jet stream going from east to west. You’ll start at the birthplace of space exploration (Baikonur Cosmodrome) and fly to varied ports until you end at the newest spaceport in west Texas, site of Jeff Bezos’ New Shephard rocket launch on 20 July 2021. A document attached to the Discord posting gives you factoids on each spaceport and how far your airport is from it. Each airport has been tested and does exist in FSX. Tour length is nearly identical to the first CRK Tour. Use a Boeing 777 (or sub B787/A350) for the first 19 legs. All runways are wide enough and most are long enough for normal 777 landings, with a shorter runway or two to provide some challenge. The final leg will use a GA craft connecting you from Richard Branson’s 12 July 2021 launch site to where the former Amazon CEO lifted off from. This Tour was created by Steve K. (MAC0124) using FSX.
