Shadow OWWE "Osa" Send-Off Formation [Request for pilots and Feedback]

[TAW_derdoe]

As many of you are aware, legendary KA-50 BlackShark pilot "Osa" has passed away last week:

I think it would be a great show of compassion of the community to take part in a Send Off Flight. 

 

This first post is for me to see if we can get enough people together and what aircraft types people wish to fly. It would be great if the pilots have some formation flying skills. If we dont manage to get a formation, we can still do fly-by in a single line. If all goes well, i would aim for this to take place this week-end. I already have a few people that expressed their interest to participate.

 

So please if you are in general interested, please leave your name, formation flying experience and desired aircraft and timezone in UTC +/- e.g. Derdoe - None - UH-1H - UTC + 1. I will then ask around if someone can provide a server for this and help me create the mission if i need some help. 

 

Also any type of feedback is appreciated and i will keep you posted if we manage to set this up. 

 

Thanks in advance,

derdoe

@104th_Fallenthank you very much about offering your server, i will contact you about it.

 

@Isegrim Thank you aswell for your offer and signing up, if somehow the 104th route does not work, i will contact you. Main reason for 104th is that the helo tournament always took place there.

After takeoff, the aircraft will form a formation on their own and fly towards Krasnodar Center. 

 

If you wish to use flares or smoke during your formation, that is more than welcome. 

If you wish to fly in 2 different aircraft (e.g. one jet, one helo), i will find a way to accomodate that.

If people show up that did not sign up, i will see if we can fit those people in aswell. 

 

Once again, please spread the information about the event to your peers. 

 

Thank you very much and see you on Saturday!

How long will the flight be, and what would be the take off time?

 

I have to leave for work at 1900 UTC, I would only have 50 minutes from 1800 UTC. Is that ok, or should I not participate?
