Hello everyone!

 

My name is Colin Levy. I am a longtime VATSIM member and part of this years WorldFlight USA team. If you haven't heard of WorldFlight, you are missing out! It is a round the world flight for charity that is conducted on this network each year in November. Flight simulators from all over the world participate in this week long event to raise money for the charity of their choice. The simulators (often full motion) fly 24 hours a day for 7 days as they hit 45 destinations, making their way back to where they first took off.

 

The WorldFlight USA team is gearing up for the event as we get close to the 30 day countdown. We just launched a Facebook page to get more people familiarized with, and interested in the event. It can also be used to find the WorldFlight USA website and get in contact with our staff.

 

If you have a spare moment, please visit and like our page at: http://www.facebook.com/wfteamusa

Thanks, Colin. Would appreciate it if the flight schedule could be emailed to Matt Bartels (USA5) and I, so we can try to put the word out and solicit controllers. Thanks!

Hi Don,

 

I just noticed you requested the Flight schedule for Worldflight this year. I am One of the Executives of the Worldflight USA Team.

 

If you would provide me with Matt Bartles email and or contact information I would be happy to forward the Schedule to Him.

 

Alternatively, he can see it posted at www.worldflightusa.com

I would appreciate anything you guys can do to help get more people involved and if nothing else, encourage us North Americans to donate to our Charity.

 

Thanks a bunch.

Thanks, Ryan. Trevor, I replied to your PM, but since this is out in the open, I'll mention to folks that I searched for and found the schedule, and have been encouraging VATUSA participation from controllers, pilots, and donators. http://www.vatusa.net/forums/index.php?topic=4903.0 Good luck and best wishes to all!
