VFR Group Flight #34
Go big or go convenient?

We'll be doing another early morning VFR group flight this Saturday 3/27. We will be departing from an uncontrolled field again but you'll never know if you land at an uncontrolled or PE-staffed field.

Start your sim of choice, load up at a vacant ramp location at one of the few international airport grasstrips in the world, Eckhart Intl (1S1) and log into the Pilotedge network to join. We will use the #Briefing Room 1 on the Pilotedge discord server for the briefing. The briefing starts at 8:00 am PDT. Information about the Pilotedge discord server can be found at the links below. After everyone is informed and ready we will advise when we switch to the local CTAF frequency.

The tour will lead us through stunning valleys. I am planning a touch-and-go at Troy (57S) and a full-stop-taxi-back at Libby (S59). Your destination for this flight will be Kalispell, it's just the question if that will be the big international airport of GPI or the convenient city airport S27. I will each of you let it know in time.

After landing at the appointed airport we debrief on the discord server again. This is a pretty basic procedure flight but with great views and an exciting element. It also offers great possibilities to work on you CTAF skills and is suitable for beginners however because it might include a landing at a class D airport, I highly recommend you to achieve at least the CAT-ratings up to the CAT-2 if you'd like to join. Preferably fly an aircraft that is easily able to maintain a cruise speed of around 110 kts.

Subscription required for this flight: Western Expansion (WUS) or Combined (ZLA+WUS)
