This is the first stage of an epic four part trip through Europe from top to toe. This trip will start off in the icy wilds of the Russian Tundra, take us through picturesque fjords and visit some interesting airfields and exciting locations on the way. We stop in Stockholm. On the way we can do some sightseeing and tricky landings.
For this trip we use the Diamond DA62 which provides excellent performance together with comfort.
It was quite an adventure creating this trip especially as NAV function didn't seem to work all the time since the updates. I found it best not to use the Garmin G1000 NXi.
NAV does work at first when using AP but should you take a break or crash, it sometimes is not available when you restart. However the route can still be completed using the HDG (Heading) Button or plain VFR.
After downloading the trip, unzip the contents into an empty folder in a location of your choosing.
The extracted Bush Trip folder contains:
Folder: ContentInfo
Folder: Missions
Files: Nine LocPak files for various languages together with manifest.json and layout.json
Copy the extracted container folder into your simulator's community folder.
I'm sure there are addons which may improve your experience however I think there is enough to see provided you have Bing data switched on.
Start up FS2020, launch activities to find your bush trip and you can begin your adventure.
Don't be afraid to go off piste and explore. However keep an eye on height, fuel and time. You don't really want to complete it in the dark!

It appears that update to 1.20.60 has created problems.

I'll have a look but there are all sorts of problems with bush trips at the moment. Perhaps you can advise what the issue is.

Sorry about the CTDs I had several when I was initially creating the trip but didn't recur when I was testing it. No idea what causes it. I guess as for giving guidance on refuelling, I assigned my refuel to a button on my mouse. My problem had been getting Nav to work properly. I think its a bug somewhere. Anyway glad you are enjoying it.

Good news! Nav mode works with the latest G1000NXi update - I've just flown the ILS approach into Bergen rwy 17. From the Working Title release notes:
Thanks again for this superb bush trip.

I also got a CTD after clicking "Fly Now", but at the second attempt it loaded perfectly. The first two or three parts of this stage CTD on loading for some reason, after that there are no problems - I'm about half way through Stage 1 now.
This is my first ever Bush Trip and the Nav Log is very well researched and very informative, I've found every waypoint and destination airfield at the first attempt thanks to the map screen in the DA62X mod along with the G1000NXi mod. For other Bush Trip newbies like me, to refuel in Bush Trips you need to assign a keystroke to the refuel and repair function in Controls > Keyboard > Miscellaneous. I chose Ctrl+R and it works perfectly. It might be worth adding this info to the readme file?
