Take off from Lausanne La Blécherette airport, and flight over the Geneva area, the Neuchatel and Bienne Area, the Bern area, then towards Zurich, Zug, Luzern, Bern, Fribourg, Vaud, Chablais, and landing, back at Lausanne La Blécherette airport.

We can see that the groud textures around the Geneva, Bern, Luzern - Zoug - Zurich areas get much lighter in color as we approach them, and get darker as we get away from them.
At 47:04, this time darker textures appear, but the area affected is quite small.

Landing:
The runway at Lausanne La Blécherette airport is a bit short for landing, so I had to go for a firm landing, with touch down at the beginning of the runway, to avoid overshooting it. As Flight Simulator also has a bad tendency to put obstacles aligned with runways, I also decided to fly the short final a bit too high, to avoid any obstacles, and so, I had to dive a little just before the landing. Landings are always more challenging on shorter runways!
Furthermore, as we can read on the apron after landing, the wigspan is limited to 12 meter at this airport. The F-22, with a wingspan of 14 meter is a bit too wide, but it was still OK.
