Yep. But on thinking about it later, I have to check how the flightgear scenery is at LFLJ :(

Thanks for having a look.

Damn it.

On searching the forums, it looks like the PAF team has a custom scenery for the airfield.

PAF produced a good model of Courcheval and the other French altiports. See their forum http://equipe-flightgear.forumactif.com/t443-altiports and the scenery section of their hangar http://equipe-flightgear.forumactif.com ... eam-hangar (in French) for details of how they did it.

You download it from http://clement.delhamaide.free.fr/PAF/Scenery.tar.gz.

It worked with the old scenery, but I have not tried in with the new.


It looked like a nice airfield for the tour and we could've flown from our previous destination Innsbruck.
But if this is the state of the runway, I'll change the place :(

We can come back at it at a later leg, when we have some time to address the RWY issue :P

Opposite to the USA Tour, this will be one where I always fall back on the same planes. Antonov, maybe Jumbolino, ... not sure what to do there.

Actually Courchevel looks quite good with the PAF CS:

...but L'alpe d'huez (LFHO) looks even better while being as challenging:
