Formation flying local player

Hi there,

I am on Xbox and fly locally. I don’t know how to fly multiplayer, if it’s possible? But I often see really cool screenshots of formation flying of some form, how do you do that?

Thanks

It’s absolutely possible.

Set up your preferences this way:
Options > General Options > Data Connection > Multiplayer > ON

Ensure your flight is setup this way:
World Map > Flight Conditions:

Then choose one of the following depending on which you prefer:

Note, too, that you can choose a regional server for Multiplayer here, also on the World Map:

Of course, you still need to find some pilots to fly in formation with!

thank you , ill try it

though I wish there was an option like X-Plane has/had- for ‘formation flying’ , so you can pick it on the fly locally by yourself. or if you’re a fighter, then choose ‘tanker’. hopefully MSFS brings this in & activities such as refuelling & more

Ah, yes, that.

PC users seem to be able to skate on past that requirement…

Fortunately now this has been solved thanks to the Xbox compatible Airshow Assistant
