Okay, this is pretty cool.

Saw the pilot post on Reddit, but thought this was more properly shared on MS

Nicely done

And it was drawn by a Mooney!

Holy smokes!  Excellent art!  4:30 hours!  That took some serious effort!

I wonder what this looks like in the cockpit…gps coordinates for waypoints? Set up with ForeFlight and pushed to panel? How many waypoints?  Pretty cool!

I was kind of hoping the pilot was on MS and could give us a behind-the-scenes view

Seems like it would take a lot of work. 

Here’s the original Reddit post fwiw

ETA: There’s actually a lot of follow up discussion since I first saw the post earlier today, and the OP gave some details on the process.

Interesting. Sounds like just used google earth to trace a picture and make a KML file that was uploaded to ForeFlight. Then just hand flew the track shown on ForeFlight.

@0TreeLemur, was this you, Fred???

Either way, it's impressive!
