From where i can get this flight route map?
Which MP server you are using?
What is the model of this glider?

Hello,
The route map is a screenshot from 'Phi' - the web-based interface built into FlightGear containing, among other things, a nice map. You get it by passing the `--httpd=8080` option to FlightGear and then using Menu > Equipment > Map (opens in browser).

I usually tend to use mpserver01, but it is not a strict rule.

The glider was Schleicher ASK 21, the JSBSim variant, from this repo: https://github.com/ysopflying/flightgear-ask21

That particular flight I was flying alone, so did not connect to MP, but a day earlier we were flying a glider event during our Wednesday MP Event, the tracking for that flight is here: https://fgtracker.ml/modules/fgtracker/ ... ID=7610463

Had a nice spontaneous trip yesterday evenening from Warngau to Innsbruck and then on to Zell am See, with the C182s.
Was partly accelerated tough, because of time constraints.

Had some very nice clouds and mountian views

Flew across the famous WWII "HUMP" from VECA to Kunming in the C-47

That is a stunning screen capture of the inside of a well equipped heavy sitting at a well populated airport. That is a good showpiece for the state of FlightGear.

[Delta5142]

Thank you! Yes, KPWM is a great example of a well developed, populated airport in FG. I've been working on improving my local airport KSMF to that level of detail.

If there just weren't static aircraft blocking the parking spots... like in KBOS and you fly online.

Sightseeing in St. Louis, MO where it seems the Mississippi River is flooded, because the Arch is in the water. Also it seems the power lines are as tall as the Arch. And what is that giant green wall in East St. Louis, which is taller than the Arch and not there IRL.

How often does FG update/sync with OSM? The airport in my home city is also not entirely accurate in FG, though independently OSM does have up to date data. And this is with 'Download scenery automatically' enabled as well as 'OpenStreetMap Data' in rendering options.

FG scenery from TerraSync hasn't been updated in years (since the last worldbuild) but WS3.0 is progressing so there will be a new world build (hopefully) somewhere in the next year maybe. In the meantime I suggest to try David Megginson's custom North America scenery - viewtopic.php?f=5&t=41465
