Would you be able to land 1000 planes in 24 hours?

Would you be able to land 1,000 planes in 24 hours… in Hong Kong (VHHH)? If so, we’ll launch this challenge on Sunday, May 4th, from midnight to 11:59 p.m.

Who will be the 1000 participants? And who will manage these 1000 planes at VHHH?

The biggest events in IF history haven’t been able to get 1,000 pilots at one time. Good luck trying to get that many within 24 hours

I trust other pilots, for now…

1/1000 for now!

Two major problems:

  • Finding 1000 community members who are unemployed / out of school
  • This will most likely crash the expert server

In my opinion, since there are about 950 players who play in the expert server daily and if former grade 2 players become grade 3 players, it could work, but everyone would have to go to VHHH that day…

Doesnt sound good😅

sounds good, doesnt work

I’m not sure what you’re trying to do? Are you expecting 1,000 people to land 1,000 times at VHHH? A total of 1 million flights?

If that’s the case, if they stayed up for 24 hours they’d have to do flights lasting no more than 40 minutes, and that’s without respawning and the traffic issues.

now maybe 100 would make more sense

rather 1000 planes landing between 00:00 and 23:59

No, there are 1000 different pilots landing in Hong Kong.

Of course, if you’re flying domestically (with an A320 or a B737, for example), you can land multiple times.

This would be a atc’s nightmare

On that, I completely agree. I hope he gets paid by IF! :sweat_smile:

What kind of hours are you using that 1000 planes in 24 hours is 83/hr?
