Too much work. I used Street Atlas software and historic66.com got most of
the cities (and towns). Spent lots of time on it. Would like to RV along it
but it appears to be two lane but the Interstates are close. Getting back to
the VORs I have flown it simulated using GPS coordinates. Just follow the
Interstate I used the flight planner of course but want to use my own
navigation.
Chicago
,Gardner,,Bloomington,Springfield,SaintLouis,Sullivan,Waynesville,Springfiel
d MO,Galena,Baxter Springs,etc. Very long complicated route but interesting
to fly.
