It’s time for another screenshot challenge! The idea is to collectively explore different parts of the world together - areas that may be very familiar to you or perhaps a new place you have never flown before. Feel free to find others to fly with to capture the challenge, or go solo!
New Zealand - World Update XII: New Zealand is available now! This is your opportunity to showcase the scenery of this beautiful Pacific Ocean nation. If you’re looking for inspiration, consider joining our weekly Community Fly-In Friday event as we explore much of the South Island along with local NZ resident and real-life airline pilot @zkdos.
If you have any screenshot challenge ideas for the future, send @Jummivana a DM!

Gisborne Airport is one of my favourites because a railway line crosses through its main runway. I had requested that Microsoft make it a Star airport, and they did it. THANK YOU. However, it would be lovelier if a train passed through it in a loop every couple of minutes or so.
