Online Events for April 2011 - Some changes!

We have decided to overhaul our events system a little bit in order to try to increase participation in events, by making them larger, better, and more varied.

Our events structure will now be as follows:

- We will continue with our weekly IVAO informal morning flights
- We will hold 1 monthly event on VATSIM and IVAO - this may be at the same time on both networks, or 2 separate events.
- We shall continue with our excellent monthly Flying Club adventures from May, and will try to open this up to the FSD server allowing everybody to join.

We hope these changes make a more interesting and varied pattern for people, and remove some predictability hence making our events exciting and rapidly changing once again.

Anniversary Event - Friday 15th April - 1830z (1930BST) - VATSIM, IVAO & FSD



April is our Anniversary - and this year Fly UK celebrates 7 years of operations! In order to celebrate this, we will be holding an exciting groupflight on Friday 15th April at 1830z (1930BST.) We are going back to our roots by flying into Leeds Bradford - EGNM (our first ever base) from 3 of our current UK bases; Southampton, Gatwick and Edinburgh. This gives everybody a chance to enjoy our full fleet, whether it's the ATR from Southampton, or our Boeing 738 from Gatwick - everybody can get involved. With full ATC being arranged on both networks - this is not one to be missed!

Please confirm your attendance on the relevant event page depending on which base you would like to fly from:
Southampton > Leeds Bradford 
Gatwick > Leeds Bradford 
Edinburgh > Leeds Bradford
