Right now it is the most pointless waste of time FP in the game.
It takes you through Deadwind Pass to Stonard, just to do a 180 and take you right back through Deadwind Pass, and up through Red Ridge, this is such a waste of time, it adds on another 2 minutes 30 seconds to the flight for no reason.
Grom’gal to Flame Crest should be a direct path.
