This is leg 2 of a multi-leg flight from Crownpoint, NM to Moab, UT across the vast Navajo Volcanic Field.
Take off from Shiprock Airstrip and follow US-64 northwest toward the New Mexico and Arizona border.
Adjust your course west and gain altitude to fly over Pastora Peak as you cross into Arizona.
Set a course west across the desert toward a dark stain in the middle of the reddish brown desert. Descend as you make your way toward Willow Spring Wash and beyond that Chinle Creek.
As you make your way into Monument Valley Rooster Rock greets you before you bend north into the center of the valley.
Explore famous Mesas like the Stagecoach and find your way to Train Rock to begin your approach.
Land at Oljato Regional.
To continue exploring the Navajo Volcanic Field from Oljato Regional, check out the Glen Canyon (Monument Valley to Glen Canyon Dam) Flightplan or one of the other Navajo Volcanic Field flights.
Note: In the video the DA40-NGX Improvement Mod has been used which makes the DA40 much easier to fly - you can check it out at https://flightsim.to/file/2738/da40-ngx-project
Thank you to mrtommymxr for the excellent mod.
