Searching for Nessie...

We all know the mystery behind the Loch Ness Monster, so we will try to de-mystify it by searching for the monster, or Nessie as she is quainty named.

The task here is to depart from Inverness, EGPE, and fly over Loch Ness in search of Nessie and finally land at Fort Augustus Airstrip, EGVX.

EGPE to EGVX, 32nm

You will need a couple of Mods to add to your Community Folder to make this achievement work though, follow the instructions below.

The Mystery of Loch Ness

This is a silly little scenery that populates MSFS with Loch Ness's most famous resident. It pairs well with the Fort Augustus scenery by TheGarner available at https://flightsim.to/file/131/fort-augustus-airfield.

Nessie herself is imported from a 3d object created by the user "Vanitaem V." at 3D Warehouse. The usage information says one can "use it for any works you need to", so it is incorporated here according to that grant.

I would love to make Nessie swim across the lake, so that she was always in a different location. However, creating new world scripts is undocumented and my initial attempts have all been grossly unsuccessful. Once there are docs or the SDK is updated to allow this to happen, it will be added.

Good luck and safe landing.

NOTAM

Nessie is a bit shy so excessive aircraft noise will scare her away, so a small aircraft is to be used. Strongly suggest the Cessna 152 or Asobo Icon A5.

There will be an extra bonus of Nexus$450 awarded where a picture posted of your aircraft and Nessie (if she appears) together in the same shot. This picture to be posted in the 'Recent screenshots' section of the achievement. The flight will gain you Nexus$50 plus the bonus of Nexus$450 to total Nexus$500 for this achievement. Otherwise the flight $$$ of Nexus$50 only will be awarded.

extra NOTAM For Robert - Because you are using FSX and unable to apply the Mods all you need to do is land at Fort Augustus Airstrip, EGVX to claim the $$$. Put a picture up of you over Loch Ness and you can have the Nexus$500.
