It’s not in the VA I think, but you just hop over from NZAA from YSSY

I wish! All of my VA flight start from where the light flight ended, hence needing to hop all over to get to an airport with a route into YSSY (currently our only route into YSSY is from PHNL)

You should do this non-stop (1 session). That’d be really awesome.

I’m currently en route from SVO to SYD (direct). Getting some rough winds so might have to make a pit stop in the Outback

It adds a new level of excitement to the whole thing. I usually try to schedule all of my flight to get me into IFATC zones, but this was the most intense effort i’ve made of it
