Today’s navigation training is a training course that takes off from the Alpha Aviation Shimotsuma Operation Center with a Robinson Helicopter R66 and heads west from Kanagawa to Mt. Fuji.

After flying clockwise around the foot of Mt. Fuji, we will head east from Kofu and return. At this distance, we can take off from the Shimotsuma flight station and return without refueling with plenty of time to spare.
