Plane: Darkstar is REQUIRED for this flight. The mission is 1183 NM (Mach 9.0, or higher, needed for today).

Duration: 20 minutes – 3.0 hours (if you lose the Scramjet)
Through POPULAR demand, I have created and scheduled the first of the ‘hair on fire’ group flights in the Maverick package, Darkstar. I am including a ‘magenta line’ flight plan, but the bird will require you to fly her (NO Autopilot). We will takeoff from Australia, and follow the line to Queenstown, New Zealand, where we will all attempt to successfully land. Flying the bird, is like being strapped to a bottle rocket. We will achieve greater than Mach 9.0 and 275,000 feet in altitude, or die trying. Can we do this? I have flown the route multiple times, and it is fully repeatable. The rush you get, as the SCRAMJET is LIT, is almost indescribable (and as a GROUP will be unbelievable). Space suit is mandatory. You will also be required to have Toggle Afterburner and Spoilers mapped (or at least recognize how to initiate them), in order to complete the Mission with us. Let’s turn & BURN!!
Welcome to the Texas Props Capetown to Catalina Series. We started near the bottom of the earth, in South Africa, and are traveling all the way to near the top of the world, in Alaska, and then back down into our USA homeland. We will be ending in a trip to Santa Catalina Island. There will be discoveries of hidden gems inside Flight Sim. Animals are waiting to be discovered. New countries are calling out to us to fly over and into. And yes, we WILL incorporate lots of aircraft into this WORLDWIDE adventure. And even JETS will be used in certain situations. I know, there’s no PROP, but sometimes we just gotta go FAST! Have you flown a COPTER yet? We WILL, I can assure you. Sometimes we just gotta go SLOW, too![event start=“2023-11-25 09:30” status=“public” timezone=“America/Chicago” end=“2023-11-25 12:30” allowedGroups=“trust_level_0”]
