2 years On the platform…

Exactly 2 years ago on The 18th of November 2023 I created this account. I didn’t think much of it. I had just downloaded the app Infinite Flight and was attempting to stick a landing in a 747 at 260knots at San Francisco. But today it has shaped my life in many ways. I’ve met many people I wouldn’t have met otherwise and shown off my skills to everyone on the platform.

It all started with one screenshot competition.
I was inspired by @Abif12 to create a screenshot competition of my own.

It wasn’t perfect but it’s the first time I ever got involved into a community!

I’d like to think that one competition practically pulled me into the community.

In 2024 I got Infinite Flight pro and I saw many on the community hosting live events in multiplayer, and I thought why not give that a try?

It didn’t go as planned thanks to a certain someone but we continued the event via a PM without anyone externally knowing about it. That day I met my two best friends on this platform @IF_Aviation_United (prev @nabilk11_777flyer) and @PilotYash00 !

Those Two have been with me for a while and @IF_Aviation_United is still my best IFC buddy!

I also found my love to host and plan events. Ill show some special Ones Here:

:1st_place_medal: Longest Group Flight Ive ever hosted (17 hours)

:1st_place_medal: Most Number of Participants (25 Participants)

The Group Flight had over 25 participants who were flying very enthusiastically! It was the first time i ever coordinated such a massive event by myselft (But obviously with the help of @IF_Aviation_United)

Formation Flight With @IF_Aviation_United

:1st_place_medal:Funniest Landings (By a Certain Someone)

:1st_place_medal: First Online Livestreamed Event

Beijing to Tokyo Haneda Group Flight (Postponed by 1 Hour))

And those are the Highlights! ive hosted Around 50 events and group flights in this amazing community. I would like to thank a few that ive met who have continued to meet in every Group Flight like @Dub_aviation @Sofloaviator and @Riley_Dupont . There are many others too.

Virtual Airlines

In April 2025 me and my community friends created a Virtual Airline called SriLankan Virtual. It was the first time we ever did anything like this. But it ultimately didnt work out. As i left Infinite Flight Shortly after the VA was approved, the VA fell into a state of Inactive. Eventually it was shut down, Not even One month after its approval :pensive_face::cry:. Thats all well and good though since I met some pretty cool people along the way like:
@Cwaker
@FlightAvgeek
@C17Joshua
@InfiniteBreezy
@Yourlocalavgeek

And our CodeShare Partners (Its a long list) thanks for believing in us!

Leaving IF and Many Parts of IFC

If you were a fan of my old group flights or were members of my VA you might have seen me leave infinite flight. You might not have seen my new projects as on May 18th 2025 i announced i was leaving, that meant i was no longer going to be active on Infinite Flight Multiplayer, no more group flights and less active on IFC to focus on my 10th Board exams (Indians You If You Know You Know)

Going into ThirdParty Apps

These days i am currently working on other projects. I am currently doing third Party apps in Infinite flight. I Started with AeroLog an all in one flight logging software with interactive 2d, 3d map, community mode and a whole list of features. Then i continued to AeroVectorX a social media for infinite flight screenshots and screenshot competitions. and finally AeroRadarX a flight tracking software for infinite flight multiplayer with 2d map (soon 3d) and much more cool features coming soon!

So Yeah ive been in this community for soo long. ive met many people, and had many crazy experiences. and i am very glad about the impact this community has had on my life!

:clinking_glasses:

Soo Cheers to another year. Ill come back during End of March after my 10 boards!
