Hi all,
writting to you from far away from home, but still activem as you can see
there has been no group event for a while so here comes a chance:
SARAJEVO FLY-INN
on Tuesday 24.8. August, starting from 19.00 Z.

We have just been invited by Bosnian VACC, a group of enthuisiasts who are working to revitalise traffic over Bosnia and Herzegovina. They have little traffic over there, and they are short of ATC, and ACH has been requested to make the skies busy for a while, when one of the ATC students will be having his training session.
They have prepared a really nice scenery of LQSA (probabaly the only add-on for this airport) - which I tested and really enjoyed. It can be quite challenging, though, so fly there if you like plunging into an airport surrounded by high hills (very pictoresque, though).
So I thought it could be a good opportunity for our pilots, before starting on-line autumn season) to switch from holiday destinations and leave LEPA, LMML and LEMD to others , while flying together over the Bosnian mounts, and help the guys make their FIR busy with pilots and ATC.
My suggestion is to fly from an airport of your choice to arrive at Sarajevo to meet there at about 21.00 Z, but if you wish to fly a formation, that's no problem at all, just make use of this forum thread to propose your route.
They have provided us with up-to date charts:
and scenery (LQSA):
I would greatly appreciate a note from you if you think of joining up that eveninig.
Best regards,
Rafal Bardel (always at service for on-line activities)
EDIT by Norbert: We have been informed that the event will take place now on Tuesday 24.8. at 1900Z
