Ivory Horizons: Abidjan fly-in|16FEB25|

Summary: Hello! Welcome to the fly-in taking place at Abidjan’s Félix-Houphouët-Boigny International Airport in Côte d’Ivoire. Abidjan, often called the “Paris of West Africa,” is a vibrant and culturally rich destination. With its stunning Ébrié Lagoon, lively atmosphere, and breathtaking landscapes, this event promises a unique and unforgettable experience.
Join me and other pilots as we converge in Abidjan for this exciting event. This will be the final event in a 4-part series Wings Over the West: A West Africa Takeover aimed at boosting traffic in West African airspace, which is often underutilized despite the region’s incredible destinations and opportunities for aviation enthusiasts.
Thank you to everyone joining us for this memorable fly-in to Abidjan!

You’re all signed up thanks!

I will be in college by there

I’d also recommend altering the date of your event by a couple of days-February 17 is well beyond the 60 day limit given for community Events.

it is 65 days for this event

Yeah I am aware of that thanks! Like what you recommend, I will alter the date to an earlier date and then change it back once it is within the 60 day limit since I need it to be on the 22nd for the series. Thanks for reminding!!

i can no longer attend sorry, merry christmas btw (if you celebrate)

Alright thats fine and merry christmas to you too!
