504smudge Posted April 25, 2020 Posted April 25, 2020 (edited) Hi Everyone. Next weekend 02/05/20 at 10:00 BST some of the pilots from the 504VFS are going to be flying a marathon/challenge event to raise money for the Starlight COVID-19 Appeal Starlight for those of you who may not have heard of it, is a charity who grant last wishes for terminally ill children, giving them some happiness in dark times. It's a charity close to a few members of our squadron. With current world events going on, they need more help than ever. The 504VFS will be hosting several streams on twitch, raising money via Twitch and Tiltify to suppot Starlight. The Event will be a flight visiting every airport in the Caucus region using the YAK-52 This will be quite a challenge to undertake. The Yak-52 is the slowest plane in DCS with a average speed of 90kts. the distance to cover will be 982 Nautical Miles. Flying time will be about 10 to 11 hours. We will also have to stop for short rest breaks and to refuel the aircraft. We would love it if you could come and support our pilots during this event. Donate if you can, if you can't then please just say hi and give some encencouragement. You can watch and support the streams via these links 504Smudge - https://www.twitch.tv/504smudge Lambo93 - https://www.twitch.tv/lambo93/ Motosuwa - https://www.twitch.tv/motosuwa_ We really hope to see you there.
