VFR Group Flight #42
Desert Flying Time

We'll be doing another early morning VFR group flight this Saturday 5/22. It's ZLA time. 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 Mesquite (67L) 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. We will depart south-west bound following the valley and eventually lake/river. We will follow it west and then under the KLAS Bravo, landing at Boulder City Muni (KBVU). After doing a full stop and turn around, we will turn south again, following the roads down to a tiny strip called Searchlight (1L3) for a touch and go. South some more and once clear of the mountains to our left, we will end up at either Sun Valley (A20) or Laughlin/Bullhead (KIFP) which is a Class D.

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 your 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.
