Trans-Siberian II, Moscow to Vladivostok in detail

This second Trans-Siberian version uses Andrey Anta’s Russian sceneries and a finer trace of the cities crossed by the mythical railway. The result is less a fast route than a long railway progression translated into the air.

The flight leaves Moscow, crosses the Urals, western Siberia, Lake Baikal, Transbaikalia, the Amur region and the Far East to Vladivostok.

ThemeDetailed Trans-Siberian

An enriched Moscow-Vladivostok journey.

SceneryAndrey Anta

Additional Russian airfields provide many references.

AircraftRobust single or twin

Endurance and patience matter more than speed.

NavigationRailway, towns and distance

Follow the spirit of the railway rather than the direct line.

Understanding the flight

The strength of this plan is deliberate slowness. You cross a continent through a terrestrial logic: towns, stations, rivers, lakes and plains.

The add-on sceneries make Russia less empty and help build a real route notebook.

Before departure

  • Install the relevant Andrey Anta Russian sceneries if you use them.
  • Remove problematic vegetation files if needed to keep credible seasons.
  • Prepare the route by sectors: Urals, western Siberia, Baikal, Amur, Pacific.
  • Keep a progress log: distances, weather, fuel and railway references.

Experience tips

Do not rush everything: repeated stages are part of the Trans-Siberian feeling.

Railway, rivers and towns should guide your story as much as GPS.
