Aussie Group Flights Team: VATSIM VFR - Gold Coast to Sunshine Coast

Group flights, Aussie style. Aussie Group Flights Team is the ultimate way to explore the world with your favourite people.

In this event we will fly the C152 or Tomahawk.

Take off from Gold Coast airport (YBCG) and fly to Sunshine Coast airport(YBSU) via Morton Island. We will do a number of touch and goes and ensure we remain OCTA (outside controlled airspace) around the Brisbane area.

CTAF calls are typically made during the flight but you can also join as an observer and fly the route, while listening in on the calls made by pilots. This can be a training ground for flying in these types of flights.

Details to follow. Hope you can join us.

PLEASE NOTE: THIS INFORMATION IS FOR FLIGHT SIMULATION USE ONLY.
