Briefing

Leg 1 — LKPR → LKCV

Prague → Chomutov Depart Prague and head northwest into the Czech countryside. The transition is immediate — from modern capital to regions where Soviet-era planning still lingers in the landscape. Factories, rail yards, and uniform housing blocks begin to dominate the terrain.

Cold War Context:

This region operated under Eastern Bloc control, where infrastructure was built for efficiency, industry, and strategic resilience. As you leave the Czech interior behind, imagine a time when crossing borders was not routine — it was controlled, monitored, and often restricted. Pilots flying near these regions during the Cold War operated under tight supervision. Airspace boundaries weren’t just lines on a chart — they were political barriers. Ahead lies East Germany — one of the most fortified sections of the Iron Curtain.

Criteria

Depart from LKPR, fly to and land at LKCV (45 NM).

You will be awarded AB 499 for completing this achievement.
