Hi everyone! This challenge is for the landing strip 85U, a small backcountry airstrip in Idaho. This is a challenging landing due to high terrain and location.
Watch the youtube demo at: https://youtu.be/FX92uRE1KU8
Recommended Scenery:
I used an amazing scenery pack from this platform, available at https://flightsim.to/file/1156/bush-strips-in-idaho. I have not tested without the scenery pack but would imagine it improves your experience immensely.
Note: I am not affiliated with the developer in any way.
Mission:
You will start in a valley approaching Soldier's Bar Airfield (85U). You need to stay high and slow down until you can see the touchdown zone or you may not have the power needed to climb back to the field. There is not a ton of room for the landing, so be precise! You will have to manuver aggressively for maximum points.
Installation Instructions:
Installation is simple. Please move 85u-landing-challenge into your Community folder for MSFS. You can find it in game under Activities > Landing Challenges > Epic > 85U Bush Landing Challenge.
Known Bugs/Issues:
- I would recommend hitting the "Go Fly" button as soon as you are loaded. Due to the extreme terrain and the fact that while you enjoy the preview screens, the aircraft is actually moving, you may crash into terrain by waiting for the showcase camera shots. If that happens, restart and be quicker to hit "Go Fly!"
Additional Notes:
I will do my best to maintain a leaderboard for each of my landing challenges! All you have to do is upload a screenshot from your flight and the score screen in the comments and I will place you according by your score.
Thank you for trying out my second landing challenge! Any feedback or comments would be appreciated. Don't forget to leave a rating, or request help if not satisfied!
