Well Im bored. So I might as well set out on an adventure. Using my F-86 flying flights shorter than 1000nm going trough Norway, Sweden, Finland, Russia, Kazakhstan, Mongolia, China, Alaska, Canada, mainland USA, Greenland, Iceland, Faeroe Islands and the United Kingdom I think i will have a good time.


So here is my route:

ENKJ-ESSB-EFHK-Ulli-UUWW-URWW-UATG-UATT-UAUR-UACC-UASK-ZMKD-ZMAT-ZMBH-ZMAH-ZMUB-ZMUH-ZMCD-ZBMZ-ZBLA-UELL-UEEE-UHMM-UHMA-PAGM-PAUN-PAED-CYPR-CYEG-CYWG-KTVC-CYTZ-KBTV-CYXK-CYQX-BGGH-BGKK-BIKF-BIHN-EKVG-EGPN-ENZV-ENKJ

Longest Flight being 922nm and the shortest being 88nm

I once had flights from Shannon ( SNN) to somewhere on the East coast of Austrailia. With Cessna 208's. My longest route on it was 450 miles. I think I branched off to South Africa and Shanghai. I think I mad a profit on it.
