FLIGHT DETAILS
Most of our Fly-In Friday events are cross-country flights between points A and B, but every now and then we like to mix things up a bit by flying a non-typical aircraft type or a tour of one specific city/location.
This week will be the latter type of fly-in. We’ll be touring Lisbon, the capital city of Portugal, in powered parachutes! Joining our guest panel of co-hosts will be @flyndive who you may know as a third-party add-on developer (Flyndive Simulations) whose products include the Paramotor 2.0 for MSFS 2020 and 2024!
Also on our panel this week will be @Forder1702 who recently hosted a tutorial session on how to fly powered parachute. You can watch the VOD of this lesson here.
We will be starting at LPPT. Please load your aircraft 10 minutes prior to take off and taxi over to the runway in preparation for departure.
AIRCRAFT
Recommended aircraft: Powrachute Sky Rascal, Flyndive Paramotor 2.0, or any aircraft of your choice suitable for flying low and slow and touring a single city.
