Welcome to Austria!
by Michael Wiercioch - MTN1610
Austria is a largely mountainous country due to its location in the Alps. The Central Eastern Alps, Northern Limestone Alps and Southern Limestone Alps are all partly in Austria. Of the total area of Austria (84 000 km² or 32,000 sq. mi) , only about a quarter can be considered low lying, and only 32% of the country is below 500 metres (1,640 ft). The high mountainous Alps in the west of Austria flatten somewhat into low lands and plains in the east of the country.
The six highest mountains in Austria are:
|
Name |
Height (ft) |
|
Großglockner |
12,457 |
|
Wildspitze |
12,362 |
|
Weißkugel |
12,267 |
|
Großvenediger |
12,054 |
|
Similaun |
11,831 |
|
Großes Wiesbachhorn |
11,715 |
Welcome Austria! Our first cargo route in Europe will send us through the eastern part of the alps. Get ready to deal with some mountains. This route has mostly short legs about half an hour. I recommend the really fantastic freeware airport sceneries for Salzburg (LOWS) and Klagenfurt (LOWK). Suggested aircraft for this route would be any prop/turboprop single or twin. Try to stay low and enjoy the scenery!!
