Today, we departed from Diori Hamani Airport (DRRN) in Niamey, Niger to Kotoka International Airport (DGAA) in Accra, Ghana, a 400 mile trip. We also tested the STOVL procedures upon arriving at Kotoka.


Real world weather conditions were loaded. The terrain in this region of course was flat desert until we entered the airspace of the small countries of Benin, Togo and Ghana Airspace, where there were small mountains and forests.
