Event Details
Date: 29th August 2026
Time: 16:00 Zulu
Server: Casual server
Rules
Allowed aircrafts
All aircraftâs are allowed. Choose the aircraft you want to race with
Takeoff
Leave the parking slot fast, and line up the runway. So others have enough time to spawn. All aircraft line up runway 03. Stay behind the red highlighted lines below.
As soon as the clock hits 16:00 Zulu, everyone can start takeoff.
The route
We are racing from KGCN to KGPA. After takeoff fly straight until you notice this point:
If you really flew straight after takeoff, you should notice the âWâ shaped mountains and the mountain in the first hole of the âWâ.
There is a little way in front of it. The blue line below highlights the way. Turn right and descend fast to the way.
An important rule is, that you should try not to fly over the ways. If you accidentally fly a bit over it, get back in fast. If you entered the correct way highlighted above, you should see a green flow. If you look below, the blue arrow points to the green flow, the red line marks the height you must not exceed, and I have circled the aircraft, so you see how tiny it looks like.
Make sure you follow the green flow. It shows you the way.
Landing
Follow the green flow, until youâre 20nm away from destination. At this point youâre allowed to fly how you want, align with the runway, whatever. The first one who touches any runway, wins. You donât have to come to full stop, since the runway isnât long. If you crash the landing or miss the runway, it doesnât count. The aircraft must be landed with gear down.
Crashing
If you crash, you are allowed to respawn at the KGCN and try again.
Tips
1.If you fly too fast, you might crash, cause there are sharp turns.
2.I recommend flying this route to get use to it before the competition starts.
If you win, leave the game and reply here with â1stâ the next one will come and see you already commented â1stâ so he/she will comment 2nd, the next one â3rdâ etc. This is the only way, you know wich place you are. So as soon as the first place comments â1stâ please donât comment anymore if youâre not taking part here, so we have a perfect list from first place to last place. Thank you.
After the event, youâre allowed to send your best screenshots hereâ
Thatâs it. Thank you very much. Hope itâs not too complicatedâ
