Special Note:
On behalf of both the Virtual USA Flying Club and The Pilot Club, we’d like to thank those in advance who plan to participate in this great event.
As the network technology continues to improve, whether its VATSIM Velocity or the realistic CTAF program, the immersion for general aviation has never been better. Help us to grow general aviation on the VATSIM network by not only participating in this event, but throughout the year as well. The more general aviation on the network, the more realistic and fun VATSIM will be!
