Virtual Scenic Flight 020: Sightseeing Flight, Osaka to Tokyo, Japan
This is a 35-minute high-speed flight from Osaka to Tokyo, the return flight of Flight 019 on another route.
We flew from Tokyo to Osaka following the Chuo Expressway and Meishin Expressway on Flight 019(https://youtu.be/ZriTFyGCcto).
This time, we fly from Osaka to Tokyo by taking the coastal route following the Meishin Expressway, Shin-Meishin Expressway and Shin-Tomei Expressway.
This route has no high mountains but many low mountains and complex land shapes. The expressway runs through so many tunnels for this reason.
The view of Mount Fuji is one of the highlights of this route in Shizuoka prefecture.
We chose F/A 18E Super Hornet again for the aircraft to travel fast.
