[9/8-10/8 0400-1200z]Singapore Bicentennial Weekend

[Mariano Longo]

 

This August we celebrate 200 years since the founding of modern day Singapore, when Sir Stamford Raffles and William Farquhar established our little island as a trading post.

 

A first for us, the VATSEA region and possibly any civilian virtual airline, SVAG is bringing to the virtual skies the customary formation flights over the National Day as it unfolds simultaneously in the real world. You will be flying in a group with your fellow pilots past the downtown skyline under the watchful eyes of air traffic control after an afternoon of hopping around picturesque tropical airports in the area. All are welcome.

 

This event lasts the entire weekend, so for those who are unable to participate on the actual day, you can join us again on Sunday.

ATC arrangements will be made for general public and SVAG pilots who do not wish to fly the formation to arrive directly at Changi on Saturday.

 

Arrangements are being made to cinematically capture this on video to memorialize this historic event. Be a part of SVAG and flight sim history this National Day!
