Come fly together in this casual, open to the public event. We take the bush airplane in search of Elephants.
An open event for you to fly-alongside or watch.
When: Sunday, September 27th, 2020 1100zulu, 7pm Eastern Time up to 2 hours.
Where: ForderLearnToFly twitch channel: https://twitch.tv/ForderLearnToFly
Flight Details: At 7:10pm (ten minutes to start your sim and gather) we will be departing HALL, a small airport, flying the Zline Cub plane for back country flying with those tundra tires to land anywhere. We start at a single runway airport and have two landing challenges during the session on the plains. (this plane available in all versions)
Two challenges: apart from being what seems in the middle of nowhere, we have the challenge of small planes getting over mountain peaks. We also start at high elevation already and have poor airplane performance. Add to that, we freeze the plane at higher altitudes and visibility reduces alongside the performance of the airplane. Short field landings are in order as we plunk down on the tundra and look around for elephants.
Planning: Starting airport is HALL. If you start late, chat the group and we will determine where we are from that airport so you can slew to us (Y key) Please load your aircraft 15 minutes prior to take off and ensure you see others doing runup nearby getting ready. We will announce when we are ready for takeoff, as we will all attempt a parallel takeoff, heading north. Tell all your friends. Anyone can tune in and watch and comment.
Weather: We will use preset weather so it’s few clouds, for the specific reason of clarity when looking for elephants. We will be landing near them and walking with them.
Multiplayer Setting: To see and be seen by everyone: (All Players) The fun part!
–Server: East USA (if everyone disappears, change your server, change it back) Xbox Userid top right.

As with all group flights, it is advisable to turn off both aircraft and terrain collisions. Although you can slew back to the group. Chat to find out where we are and use the Y key to slew back to us.
