California Dreams, also referred to as Avalon to The Sea Ranch, is a Bush Trip in Microsoft Flight Simulator (2020). This bush trip is flown in the Cessna 208 B Grand Caravan EX and consists of 13 legs over a distance of 860 nm with an estimated cruise time of 4 hours and 11 minutes.


The state of California is one of the most geographically diverse places in the world. It hosts a tremendous range of sights from urban, to coastal, to desert, to mountain, and much more. The state contains both the highest point in the conterminous United States (Mount Whitney) and the lowest point in the country (Badwater Basin). It is home to grand monuments of infrastructure and architecture like the Golden Gate Bridge of San Francisco and the U.S. Bank Tower of Los Angeles. It is also a realm steeped in history, notably of those inspired to dream big and create masterpieces of technology and art of all types and to strike off and explore the peaks, shorelines, and other reaches of the state.

California Dreams celebrates this part of the United States through an aerial itinerary that weaves through the most spectacular, the most renowned, and the most historic that this state has to offer. Beginning at Santa Catalina Island, one of southern California’s Channel Islands, the flight visits Los Angeles, the Mojave Desert, Death Valley, the High Sierra, the Great Central Valley, and San Francisco before coming to an end on the northern California coast.
