"If you know if any other interesting places or routes to fly, please let
me know and I can add them to this list." Here's a candidate:

Israel to Jordan over the Dead Sea
(There are no borders in the virtual reality!)
Tile: ftp://ftp.flightgear.org/pub/fgfs/Scenery-0.9.8/e030n30.tgz

Apt. IDs: LLBS to OJAI, 70nm

Dead Sea is the lowest water elevation on the Earth. Take
off from the Beer-Sheva airport and head East-North-East.
About half way there, after the southern Hebron mountains ridge,
there'll be a sharp drop-off down to the Dead Sea --- the lowest
exposed point on the Earth.

It's really fun to descend and explore the beautiful coastline.
In the real life, you wouldn't like to fly low over this water
there of your own will --- while you don't need a life vest in the Dead
Sea, the water is pretty caustic there for one's eyes. Once you're done
marvelling the sights, continue on to the Queen Alia airport.

Vassilii
