Newfoundland Passage, also referred to as Port Au Choix to St John's, is a Bush Trip in Microsoft Flight Simulator (2020). This bush trip is flown in the Beechcraft Bonanza G36 and consists of 6 legs over a distance of 387 nm with an estimated cruise time of 2 hours and 22 minutes.


Newfoundland, located in eastern Canada and part of the province of Newfoundland and Labrador, is a sparsely populated island of austere beauty. At just over 42,000 square miles in area, it is the fourth largest of Canada’s islands, and the largest of its islands outside of those of its high arctic (Baffin, Victoria, and Ellesmere). Populated by less than a half million and experiencing a subarctic climate where North Atlantic storms lash it, relatively few travel to Newfoundland. Those who do venture to the area are treated to spectacular vistas of coastline, interior mountains, lakes, rivers, sweeps of tundra, and the colorful, historically-evocative architecture of its few settlements.

This bush trip visits all of the best that Newfoundland has to offer, beginning at the small Port au Choix Airport, located on the island’s northwest. The journey then weaves a course throughout a medley of the island’s geography to the Avalon Peninsula, ending at Newfoundland’s most populous city, St. John, the capital of Newfoundland and Labrador.
