yup. Eastern Russia probably starting around Sakhalinsk and North through Eastern Siberia, there isn’t much at all. Just tree filled rocky terrain and airports approximately 2-3 hours apart without any nearby alternates. From what I remmeber, nearest alternates were approximately 200 nm away from most airports along eastern Siberia.

how are you capturing your screen shots? Via steam using F12? or the Win+Alt+Prtscn? Or some other way? Great shots btw. Also are you posting videos anywhere?

Little bit of both on screenshots no videos. I will stream / video on my last flight :slight_smile:
