FLIGHT DETAILS
July 1 is Canada Day! 
To celebrate the national holiday of the Great White North, our fly-in this week will be a trip along the St. Lawrence River to the nation’s capital city of Ottawa. We will depart from Quebec City, fly over the famous Château Frontenac hotel then continue on a southwesterly heading towards Montreal to see such landmarks as Olympic Stadium and Habitat 67. Finally, we will head to Ottawa for a full-stop landing after a fly past of Parliament Hill.

We will be starting at CYQB. Please load your aircraft 10 minutes prior to take off and taxi over to the runway in preparation for departure.
AIRCRAFT
Recommended aircraft: as this is a Canadian-based fly-in, the most thematically-appropriate aircraft is the de Havilland Canada DHC-2 Beaver. 
For those sim pilots who prefer a more modern aircraft with glass cockpit avionics, the Canadian-built Diamond DA40 is another good choice. Of course, you can also pick any aircraft you like provided it can maintain a cruise speed of around 120 knots.
MULTIPLAYER SETTINGS
Please adhere to the following settings so you can see everyone / be seen by everyone.
| Variable | Setting |

It is advised in this flight to turn off both aircraft collisions and terrain collisions. If you do crash, you can use “slew” mode to join the pack. If the pack will be too scattered before the first stop, we will use slew on a defined point to regroup.
COMMUNICATION
To communicate with others, a voice channel on the "Official Microsoft Flight Simulator Discord” at https://discord.gg/msfs will be available to join.
LET’S FLY
This is meant to be a fun and informal flight. Everybody is welcome, no matter the amount of experience.
