How can I set the xplane 11 simulator to create an in-flight start at a specific location and altitude by entering longitude, latitude and elevation as is possible in xplane 10 map view?  (not at an airport)  There's a particular hill I want to practice soaring over.

There is not a way to set a position by lat/long in X-Plane 11. The closest thing you could do is start at the nearest airport then drag the aircraft in the local map to the location you want.

FS Instant Approach can set your position on approach to an airport.

How far from an airport is the hill you want to practice with?
