Welcome to the 167th flight event with Gunpilot and a whole bunch of other like-minded sim pilots. If you have just discovered these flight events for the first time, welcome aboard and you will be made to feel very much at home with the rest of the pilots on the flight.
The only Request we make is that you arrive on the tarmac in the aircraft designated for the flight, and you join in the banter on the supplied COMMS RADIO which can be found in Gunpilot’s Discord server (click on this link to take you directly to Gunpilot’s server GUNPILOT’s Server ).
This week we sojourn into the mountains of north east India to tackle the high and rugged terrain and landing challenges that will have us having to land in some of the tightest locations we have been presented with over the past 3+ years of flying together.
You will be amazed at the locations that these mountain villages have been constructed, perched on mountain ridges with the Himalayas as a distant backdrop to add to the overall vistas we will encounter. No landings strips have been built in or near these remote villages, as has been done in PNG, so we will be forced to land in some really challenging spots that will have you standing on the brakes, sideslipping, and relying heavily on the judicious use of reverse thrust.
To add to the already challenging flight, mist lying in the lower elevations, and intermittent rain streaming up your windscreen will add to your overall cockpit workload to bring your aircraft to the final destination in 1 piece. Apart from this, the flight will be a soda (never believe it when Gunpilot says this 
).
The aircraft will be the Rockwell Bronco. This aircraft type is admirably suited to this region with its ability get into and out of very tight landing zones.
