Flight Path
The flight path crosses central Georgia and into South Carolina, passing over the Piedmont region. Notable features include the Ocmulgee River valley in Georgia, the transition from coastal plain to Piedmont foothills around the Georgia-South Carolina border, and the Savannah River drainage basin. The landscape gradually transitions from flat, forested terrain to rolling hills with increasing elevation as you approach the Piedmont of North Carolina. No major mountain ranges are visible on this route, but the subtle topographic rise becomes apparent as you progress northeast.
