==Ketchikan to Juneau== | |||
It's cold where we will go so dress up warm and if we are lucky we might see whales during our flight. Don't fly too high to enjoy the amazing views, and there is a small challenge at the end. The runways we will use are long enough for bigger aircraft (7000+). Total length of the trip will be around 245 NM. So, hop in the cockpit of your favourite airliner. | |||
Alaska, here we come! Enjoy! | |||
#Park your aircraft on PAKT, [http://www.borough.ketchikan.ak.us/airport/airport_history.htm Ketchikan International], runway 11. The wind is coming from '''South''', change the weather if needed (SE is ok too). | |||
#Fly North towards [[NDB]] Fredericks Point on 372.0 for 94 NM. | |||
#Fly towards [[NDB]] Five Fingers on 295.0 for 39 NM. | |||
#Fly towards [[NDB]] Gustavus on 219.0 for 77 NM. | |||
#Fly towards [[NDB]] Coghlan Island on 212.0 for 32 NM. | |||
#Set the [[ILS]] on 109.9 and land your aircraft (after 4 NM) on PAJN, [http://www.juneau.org/airport/ Juneau International], runway 08. | |||
If you feel warm after this landing, you just crossed a NORAD microwave site, so that is why. | |||
