Hawaiian Islands Roundtrip
In this series of 5 bush trips we fly around five islands of Hawaii, from the northern island to the southern : Kauai - Oahu - Molokai - Maui and Hawaii (The Big Island). We start on the west or north side of each island (we start from Lanai Island for the roundtrips Molokai and Maui) and then round it eastwards along the coast. A flight over the center of each island (the mountainous parts) is also included in every bush trip.
The main goal of the trips is sight seeing. The airplane is the DA40-NG Asobo with assistance settings set to easy (some of these can be changed). There are also icons that show the way to get to the waypoints and final destination.
Six languages are included : English, French, German, Dutch, Italian and Spanish. The translations were made with google translate and are not linguistically corrected. They are to be taken for what they are.
Flightbooks only in English language are included separately.
Installation :
- extract the Hawaiian Islands Roundtrip.rar file
- there are 2 folders in the extracted file : 1) the folder "Hawaiian Islands Roundtrip Bush trips" with 5 folders in it - put all 5 folders in your community folder - 2) the folder "Flightbooks" with the flightbooks in pdf format (this folder may not be put in the community folder).
Thanks to BuffyGC for the BushTripInjector tool and to Alexander Barthel for 'Little Nav Map'.
If you want the possibility to choose the plane, the weather, the time of day and the season (and some other goodies), then you should take a look at the experimental program - MissionChanger - also created by BuffyGC.

Trip 4 In leaving PHHN to begin leg 2 , The POI in the Nav Log is numbered 09 should it not be 11?

The numbering of the POI is done automatically by the program I use.
I checked the data sources and they all list POI9 ( Kaenae Peninsulana ) after PHHN. The airports are not counted as POI as well as the town (Hana) in this automatic numbering.
