VEPT -> ZULS, dawn.
ZULS is where you have to raise the cabin altitude when landing, it's 11,800 ft!!!

@HansRoaming thank you for the next flight idea. I already had ZULS!

@DrZGard this route will take you right by Mount Everest, only six thousand feet below you on the left side when you're at FL350.

Another, previous screenshot, OIIE to OPIS.
@HansRoaming Made the flight tonight (early morning in MSFS land) using Say Intentions. Everything went swell till starting the descent into ZULS, altitude assignments were way too low and then the vectors would have also taken me into terrain. This is a tricky airport to land at (or depart from) because of the surrounding terrain and very high altitude... I can only imagine what density altitude could do here if the day got that hot. My over the fence TAS was 140 knots!

@DrZGard BayondATC did the same for me, so that's interesting.
I believe pilots have special training due to the changes in manoeuvring at that altitude, flights are also scheduled for the morning and night due to the high winds in the afternoon.
ZULS - ZPPP, dawn departure.
