VATSIM's premier event WORLDFLIGHT flies around the world from Sunday 3 November 2013 (UTC) until Sunday 9 November 2013, this time travelling in a primarily Westbound direction.

AirSource is supporting this event by making each flight available in the Bid Division for you to join in and fly any or all of the 45 legs.

This year the WFG will depart Sydney Australia [YSSY] on Sunday November 3rd at 2200UTC and visit 44 airports, cover 39,388nm and take seven days to complete, finishing up back in Sydney on November 9th at approximately 0845UTC. The flights are conducted in real time and have a 50min turnaround time after each leg to allow for a crew change, briefing and refuelling.

Air Traffic Services will be provided by your local Air Traffic Controllers and when they are not available the ATC will be provided by the WFG ATC team under special arrangements with VATSIM.

As each year passes WorldFlight attracts more full cockpit simulators to the group. This year we will have four additional fixed base simulators bringing the WFG teams to eleven. The WFG teams are from the UK, Germany, USA and Australia. The cockpits represent both Boeing and Airbus jet airliners with the B737-800 being the most popular. There are also two B747-400s, one Boeing 777 and a new Airbus A330.

Each of the teams raise money for approved charities and these charities can be found on each team???s website. WorldFlight Group management will monitor the fund raising and ensure that each team passes on 100% of money raised to their nominated charity.
