With the Fokker VII from England to Karachi
The flight from England to Karachi with a duchess, two aviation pioneers and a tough princess named Xenia.
This is a flight that was planned for Microsoft in the World Update Australia, for the series "Local Legend of the Fokker" but for various reasons was not included in the official update. Here now exclusively for you to download.

Charles Douglas Barnard took off from Lympne Airport on June 10, 1928 in a Fokker F.VIIa, christened "Princess Xenia", for a flight to Karachi (then India). He was accompanied by Flying Officer Eric Herbert Alliott and Mary Russell, Duchess of Bedford. At this time, the Duchess employed C. G. Barnard as her personal pilot and flight instructor.
Today, we cannot reconstruct the exact route that the Princess Xenia flew in 1928. Unfortunately, there are too few clues for that. But it will be an epic flight over the Rhine and Danube rivers, all the way to the Black Sea. You will fly over the Bosporus and the Turkish Taurus Mountains and follow the Euphrates to the Persian Gulf. Then you will shimmy from landing place to landing place along the Gulf coast to Karachi and will see unique landscapes on your journey. As in those days, the flight will be entirely without electronic navigation aids.
Necessary Adon:

Hello Koschi, thks for this new trip...
But the Fokker VII is a payware, so what MSFS aircraft do you recommend to do this mission ?
Thanks by advance

You can fly this trip with any aircraft that does not have jet engines. I would recommend a old aircraft.

Thanks for this. Loaded as instructed (I believe) but can't find it in my Bush Trips. I can manually load the .pln but that is all. When I try to load as a saved flight does not work. Need help to see what I'm doing wrong.
Thanks,

The trip does not appear in the official bush trips. It is the rightmost tile with the third party suppliers. The trip also only appears if you have purchased the Fokker.

Very nice.
I think the plane was called "The Spider" when it took this journey.
Would be very nice to have the according repaint .

Spider was the name of all airplanes built by the Dutch designer Anthony Fokker between 1910 and 1913.
You are absolutely right about the repaint. I would appreciate it very much if it could be realized afterwards.
