Aussie Group Flights Team: VATSIM VFR - Normanton to Burketown

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 C172.

Take off from Normanton for Burketown up in the Gulf of Carpentaria. The event will be run on the VATSIM environment and there will be another group, that we will encounter as approaching traffic from the opposite direction. 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.
