Ok, well, there are also flares to watch for so that will help,
but if you really must get the exact location it's:
N46 36.92 E8 8.42
I did note that on my p3d v4 the scenery alignment is off a bit (the people aren't standing on or by the plane as they should be), but the scenery is all there. It was originally designed for fsx and it's one I hadn't tested in p3d. I might have to make some minor adjustments for this one for P3d users at some point, but it's still ok as it is for the most part.

Several other things about that flight, besides being a very scenic flight, you can watch for a flat area carved out of the mountain side - I did this to provide landing area, but the friction is off on that so it's very slippery and you'll want to be almost at stall speed so that you can stop without sliding off the edge or into a rock cliff. I prefer to land towards a wall so I'll bounce off the wall rather than sliding off the edge into the abyss.

Thanks a lot. I flew the adventure and knowing it was on the flat area helped.

John,
I tried to add my awards to my signature, but they don't show up. You can see what I put into my signaure in my messages to you. What am I doing wrong?

Bill,
Sorry for the frustration for you on that. This even surprised me. I did remove the duplicate line from "extra information" on your profile, I'm not sure what that did exactly, but it didn't fix the problem. Comparing your signature string and my own showed the only difference being spaces between the "<" and ">" symbols. I removed them from your signature line so it looks like mine and it works as expected. What is strange is that spaces inside an image tag (delineated by those symbols) doesn't affect regular html, yet they seemed to mess things up for a signature tag. I'll have to add a note to my directions about that to prevent future problems. I think it might have to do with how the forum translates that information into code for the signature input - I'm guessing adding special characters for the space character that makes the image tag unreadable. I do have spaces in my directions, so a copy and paste and filling in the information just as you did would have produced the problem you experienced. You did everything correctly, so I better change the instructions a bit. I think I put spaces in there when I posted the instructions for readability - but what good is that if it doesn't work.
Again, sorry about that. I'll have to correct that on the instructions page tomorrow, but you're good to go now. Any future icons should automatically update when you log in at SPA and visit the Adventure Page. That updates your signature. It sometimes takes a bit for your browsers memory cache to refresh so that you'll see the update, depending on your browser and its settings.
As always - any future problems, just let me know.
