Nice ! I made part of that flight for real a few times....... in a Robin of course.... :-D

[jankees]

So have I, including the landing at la Motte, in a 172, a Robin and a Rallye.
The 172 was a Dutch registered diesel that barely made it over the mountains...only used to flat terrain I suppose

France is a beautiful country. I normally spend my holidays in the West of France, which is much lower. In fact it is so low I don't need an aircraft and can even go by car :biggrin-new: (Sorry, poor joke :engel016:)
