Fly UK Real World Event - 747 Simulator

Fly UK Virtual Airways are pleased to announce that we have organised a real world event to the Boeing 747 Simulator located in Coventry, on Saturday 24th October 2009.  This real world event will start at 11am and is a fantastic opportunity for Fly UK members to get together in a realistic simulator environment, to demonstrate their flying skills with fellow Fly UK pilots!

The simulator is "purpose built and models the Boeing 747-400 (Jumbo Jet) in superb detail and along with very realistic visual and sound systems provides our customers with a fully immersive “Virtual Flight” Experience".

This real world event is open to anyone who wishes to come along, but you must confirm your attendance prior to the event, as we will need to know definite numbers of members attending in advance, for the Simulator owner.

The price of the event has been reduced from the usual public price, to a special Fly UK price of £34 for around 30 minutes in the simulator, which is excellent value for money!  Whilst in the simulator, you will be able to fly alongside one of your fellow Fly UK pilots, taking in difficult approaches at airports such as Kai Tak and Innsbruck and it is sure to be a test of your piloting skills!

A further requirement in order to attend the event, is that it would be helpful if you would be able to pay the £34 in advance of the event.  This is to ensure that members who inform us of their interest to attend, actually attend the event.  This can be done by secure payment via Paypal to Chris Miley (Vice CEO) who will then pass the money onto the simulator owner.  This is purely to ensure that the simulator owner does not loose out on income, as if any Fly UK members decide that they cannot attend at the last minute; their slot may not be able to be given to the general public in time.

This event is a perfect opportunity for members of the VA to get together in a realistic simulator environment, to have a good day together and to fly alongside fellow Fly UK pilots in the simulator.  We hope to see as many people there as possible, as the more people who turn up the better the day will be.  We look forward to seeing as many of you as possible on Saturday 24th October!

If you are planning on attending this event, can you please confirm your attendance in the attendance thread, this can be found here:

Once again, we look forward to seeing as many of you as possible on the day!
