Welcome to chapter three of our bush trip across Alaska!
Our 519nm journey continues at Shungnak Airport (PAGH). We'll be flying over the Yukon Flats National Wildlife Refuge. The back half of our trip will bring us close to the Canadian border (sorry!) before our final landing at Coal Creek (L20).
We recommend flying no lower than 7,500 feet to take in the breath-taking views, but you're free to fly at any altitude you want.
Your aircraft - a Cessna Skyhawk G1000 - is being refueled. Let's get her up and running, and let's go flying!

1. Download the archive and extract the files.
2. Drag the "mission-pagh-l20" folder to your Community folder.

Flight plan created, tweaked, and tweaked again and again with Little Navmap. Thank you, Alexander Barthel, for making it that much easier to explore our planet.
At POI 14 you say "turn left and fly NE to a large large" What is a large?
At POI 15 and 16 you say to fly Northeast . When flying to POI 16 you are flying a heading of 360 . Wouldn't that be North ?

Investigating. Will have a new fix uploaded shortly.

Hey dad , Has your Cessna got a turbocharger? Because I changed my plane to a Beech G36 and it's taking me longer to fly the legs than you have in your nav log . I have that thing wide open most of the way (about 165-170) . I think a Cessna is about 135 or so . And I'm using the AP to follow the GPS line , So why is it taking me longer than you say? , Not much Maybe 2 or 3 minutes , But if I'm flying about 30 knots faster than you why is it taking me longer? Just wondering what the reason could be ?

A C172 does 126kts at cruise in the sim (122kts IRL), so I'm just as stumped as you are re: leg times.
Can you give me a few examples of where you're seeing some glaring differences?
