Hosted by @SeedyL3205 and @SimFlightPro
When: Friday, August 14 @ 1800Z for two hours.

FLIGHT DETAILS
For Fly-In Friday this week, we’re doing some BC flying: that is a back country bush flight to Bella Coola in beautiful British Columbia!
Alongside Community Manager SeedyL and guest co-host SimFlightPro, we will also have Got Friends joining us to give a preview of their upcoming Taylorcraft BC-12D and showcase the exciting features that make the plane an ideal choice for backcountry adventures!
Suggested Marketplace Add-on: Flying is more fun with an animal companion joining you in the cockpit, so consider purchasing Man’s Best Friend: Deluxe by Got Friends from the in-sim Marketplace to enhance this week’s Fly-In. Please note that purchasing this product is entirely optional and is not required to participate in the group flight.
MSFS (2020) and MSFS 2024 Pilots on PC can download the .pln file here:
