Welcome to the 139th flight event across the GUNNER DOWNUNDER series. This week we will be flying thru the largest canyon in Europe, located in France, and the event is again guaranteed to give you more of the unique and challenging flight experience that you have come to expect from Gunpilot’s flight events.
The Gorges du Verdon, a must-see in Provence, France and Europe, awaits us this week and promises a great landscape to fly thru. Considered as the French ‘Grand Canyon’, it is the largest canyon in Europe, a great place for hiking, climbing and white water sports.
As usual, landing challenges in our Grand caravans will add to the overall spectacle and ambience of the flight.
*Again, a packaged up WEATHER file has been developed and included along with the flight plan, negating any need for anyone to dial in weather settings, as well as ensuring that all pilots are experiencing exactly the same weather conditions. The Weather Preset file is located in #gunpilots-events (click GUNPILOT’s Server to be taken there). Extract file into your Community Folder prior to launching your sim for the flight.
Remember, you will be dropping onto the departure runway in a Cessna Grand Caravan!
