Tour Details
US GA Tour - Nebraska & Kansas, Part 1Description: Separate state tours would have yielded about 15 legs each but combining them as a two-parter allows you to a full 40 flights. Also, combining them has historical significance though not for the best of reasons. The Kansas-Nebraska Act of 1854 created Kansas and Nebraska to break up the large swath of land acquired by the Louisiana Purchase in 1803, but each state’s governing body was allowed to choose separate paths towards being pro or anti-slavery. Kansas and Nebraska enjoy a competitive nature between them today in college sports but they share many similarities in topography. Both states have rolling hills in the east with flat plains in the west. There won’t be much mountain flying in this tour. Wichita, Kansas claims to be the “aviation capital of the world” as it was the birthplace of Cessna, Learjet, Beechcraft, and Mooney. This is a two part tour and both parts are required to be completed before awarding of the badge. Remember that many GA airports only use 3-digit designators. If you can’t find the listed airport in your sim, please drop the “K” at the beginning. This tour was created by Steve K. (MAC0124) using FSX. Possible Airport Alternatives Part 2, Leg 2, instead of flying to K2K3 (2K3), you might need to fly to KJHN instead. Division: Open Division bool(false) |
