We will also be joined this week by members of the FlightFX dev team to showcase their recently-released Hawker 800XP business jet!
disappointing that this is only open for people who can fly an aircraft capable of supersonic flight.
there is a community of simmers who fly, with big interests in circumnavigation and fly in the sim most of the time, legs in their circumnavigation routes. with a variety of aircraft and challenges. To be able to join in officially on a circumnavigation, officially with the channel, would be great! Something worthwhile taking part in, peaking interests, in the sim. Its a shame tbh
Capable of supersonic flight is only specific for this event because you want to do legs in reasonable time for working people ±2hours. Other flying Fridays offer variety of aircraft to attend.
I didn’t think of the selection of people that this would fit in for, 2 hr legs etc. that’s accommodating.
The other official fly ins are for others, variety of aircraft etc. I use to take part. I was referring to the circumnavigation idea for everyone though, who could take part also in a variety of aircraft fast enough, airliners, CJ4 etc. Legs could be 300-400nm and it still take a few hrs, but understand that would be a huge undertaking, and a length of time, unsuitable really for a drop in session.
Hello @AttachedFiend39,
Almost every Community Fly-In Friday event over the past six years has used “low & slow” GA aircraft. For this one series only, we are using supersonic jets because we want to finish a complete global circumnavigation within a reasonable number of ~2 hour sessions.
The total route length for the circumnavigation is approximately 18,000 nautical miles. If we did legs that were 300-400nm each week as you suggest, then it would take 45-60 weeks. To put that another way, we’d still be completing our 6th Anniversary Circumnavigation after the 7th Anniversary of MSFS!
Following the conclusion of this special 6th Anniversary event, Community Fly-In Friday will return to its traditional format which most frequently uses slower GA aircraft for sightseeing and exploration.
Thanks,
MSFS Team
Literally what was already said
I really enjoyed this week as well. Thank you, everyone. By the way, this flight passed overhead near my house.
Used live time and live weather for stage 5 so I did not see Mount Fuji, but got a nice sunrise instead. 2020 group was scattered a little bit but was nice seeing familiar nameplates nonetheless.
Tokyo Skytree (if I am correct)
Light on the horizon
@HeXtHeLeGeNd318 escorting me to arrival.
Group photo with @Groversaurus, @HeXtHeLeGeNd318, @Edorin5981 and myself.
Would been a nicer flight had not MSFS2020 decided to go nuts mid flight
As example @Edorin5981 sudenly very low poly (but fps friendly) Pelican (Also top speed recorded here mach 2.22)
still… could be worst:
anyway:
Supersonic formation with @HeXtHeLeGeNd318
and final arrivals with the other Darkstar under @Groversaurus command
Didnt got to see @JpFlyingHigh and @TheHunDude Rhinos
After a one week hiatus, we’re back on September 25 for the next stage of the 6th Anniversary Circumnavigation! This week, we’ll be crossing the Bering Sea from Asia to North America with a flight from UHPP in Kamchatka to PANC in Alaska!
During the broadcast, we will conduct a prize giveaway to one lucky viewer courtesy of Turtle Beach of their brand new PC/XBOX VelocityOne H.O.T.A.S. plus 2x VelocityOne Universal Sim Mounts! You can check out all the details of these products and other great flight sim peripherals from Turtle Beach at this link.

Some 2020 screenshots from stage 6.
Proof that the Moon was still up at the start of the stage (at least in 2020 
).
Orange painted clouds.
Interesting ground pattern.
Very long and very fast flight at high mach numbers.. quite fun .. and also aparently i won something 
(thanks to Turtle Beach again for the giveaway)
So we had @JpFlyingHigh and @TheHunDude in Rhinos, @Edorin5981 in the mighty Pelican and @HeXtHeLeGeNd318 in the Darkstar
So departure shot because TOMCATS
Pack shot in the distance
I think the F-14B/D top speed was 2.1 or even less as the F110 has more thrust but its more optimized for low-mid speed and aceleration than the TF30 but whatever:
Also stoping for some gas
@TheHunDude Rhino
@JpFlyingHigh Rhino
@Edorin5981 Pelican also at over mach 1.5
.. slighty detoured to take polaroids at random traffic:
and final arrival with @HeXtHeLeGeNd318 joining us
