Dispatch Story

Passenger brief

A left-field regional service from Windhoek to Lüderitz, dropping from Namibia’s interior toward one of the world’s most dramatic desert coasts.

Booked load: 10–16 passengers · Regional / leisure baggage. Use your aircraft’s simulator load manager for actual weights and balance.

Why fly this?

Very few flights deliver such a clear landscape transition in under two hours: plateau, emptiness, dunes and cold Atlantic coastline.

Difficulty: Moderate

No destination ILS record was found in the supplied ILS dataset.

Data basis: airport coordinates, runway metadata, magnetic variation, communications and approach counts are taken from the supplied MSFS 2024 airport scenery dataset. VOR/NDB/ILS references are selected from the supplied MSFS navaid datasets. Planning time and altitude are simulator-oriented suggestions, not operational performance or real-world flight-planning advice.
