This is an open event, free to all who would like to fly along with us and available to pilots of all skill levels. The goal is to have a great time, explore new locations of the world, and make new friends. This event is open to pilots on both sim versions (MSFS 2020 and MSFS 2024) and both the PC and Xbox platforms.
Hosted by @SeedyL3205 and @FlightsWJoel

There will also be a Discord event channel open for those who want to voice chat with other members of the community.
Please see below for details on the upcoming Fly-In Event:
FLIGHT DETAILS
Earlier this year on January 28, 2025, the Boom XB-1 flew into aviation history as the first civilian aircraft from the United States to break the sound barrier. With the release of SU4 on December 8, the XB-1 is now available FREE for all players to fly in Microsoft Flight Simulator 2024. For our Community Fly-In Friday event this week, we’ll be departing from Mojave Air and Space Port (KMHV) where the XB-1 completed its test flights.
From the Mojave area we will then fly on a generally northbound heading to Seattle for a full stop landing at Boeing Field (KBFI). It was in the Seattle area over 50 years ago where America’s previous attempt at building a supersonic civilian aircraft, the cancelled Boeing 2707, was originally designed.
