Automated flying machines

Hi guys,

I need to get hold of an automated flying machine (plane, helicopter, hot-air balloon, whatever), that follows a pre-programmed flight path to a final destination.

I am not talking about teleporting to the final destination, nor about simple straight-line movement, but say a plane that takes off, banks and turns, and takes you on a realistic flight to a final destination.

Has anyone come across such a vehicle, or something close?

Rock

There are SL companies that build custom-made tours or at least sell tours that you can customise. One of the best places I've visited - Acropolis - has almost too many tours... on flying insects, balloons, hang-gliders, magic carpets and more.
If you're looking for a straight A to B kind of thing, the Particles Lab has a balloon that takes you from the ground to a number of destinations. So they must be available. Check them out and look for the creator.

Search the SLX marketplace for 'tour'. There are many systems by a variety of creators. :)
