We are proud to invite you to our very first event, the Launch Of Excellence!
Let’s pop champagne and enjoy our first VA event. 
We will launch with an airbridge between Amsterdam and Zurich, our two hubs. This event will be held online on IVAO. Anyone who is not flying on IVAO is more than welcome to join to fly offline or on another network! You can fly oneway or both ways depending on what you prefer. We have requested ATC staffing on IVAO in both Amsterdam and Zurich and along the way.
