There is a hop list feature that has Races.

Each player flies as fast as they can to an airport, does a touch and go, and proceeds to the next airport.

The first to get to them all wins.

This is an all at once type of hop list, so you would have to stay and complete the entire thing with a group of fliers.

I'm thinking a Saturday or Sunday in Early August to do this.

Is anyone else interested?

Time, location, and length are all open at this point, the only thing I would like to establish at this point, is that we should limit the planes to small single engine props.

This will make it a lot easier to maintain control over the event, and there is more of a following for small props. Wink

Reply if interested.

I'm certainly interested, sounds like good fun. But I'm worried about the time difference, will that cause an issue? Undecided

If it starts at 9-10pm EST that would allow for all of the Western Hemisphere plus Pacific & Australia, and any DIE HARD Europeans.  Wink

9:00-10:00 PM EST...

...that's the time that most die-hard Europeans are generally tucked up, nice and warm and cosy, at 4 O'clock, in the middle of the night (next Morning) .. Wink...!
