Flight from Aiyura to Surisil (Yasuru)
This is a somewhat whimsical flight (okay, this is Microsoft/Asobo Flight Simulator--it's all whimsical) from Aiyura airport in the Eastern Highlands of Papua New Guinea to an airstrip that my dad and his colleague, "Uncle" Jerry Allen, supervised the construction of, circa 1962.
This 1,970 foot long airstrip in the area that was known as Surisil (now Yasuru) which was given the ICAO code AYYR. Like many bush runways constructed in Papua New Guinea it has since closed, and is now occupied by village houses.
One benefit of MSFS is that one can create scenery to better visualize what was once there.
The Cessna 310R by Milviz / Blackbird Simulations used in this flight, is one of the best planes offered for the sim, with about 200 components that are tracked for wear and tear (and thus probability of failure); depending on how well you fly from one flight to the next... even the paint job gets dirty over time. This is not exactly a bush plane and anything but STOL; with very poor short soft field performance--but that only adds to the "challenge" and drama of flying into an area like this.
