Time to get back to it!

This year, we are proud to produce new concepts, at least regarding our Online Day, as we decided to introduce an enhanced formula for the months to come: Online Day becomes Online Challenge Day.

Like the Online Day before, our new Event is taking place every 2 weeks, on Tuesdays and it will henceforth allow you to freely fly across France or open your favorite ATC position. BUT, every edition of this event will bring one of our FIR into the spotlights, alongside an airport, type of flight throughout a different challenge. Yeah, of course, we have a few surprise nights in our pockets, and overseas territories are on board!

These challenges aim to present something different to do every 2 weeks, to challenge yourself, discover or rediscover many ways of flying across the skies of our beautiful division.

Online Challenge Day will be released with one week notice. Please refer to the Rules section to find new conditions to be awarded one point toward the Online Day.

Enough chit-chat, here are the details of the Online Challenge Day, on 28^th September 2021 :

Marseille FIR invites you to discover Corsica and its landscapes.

 Airports

Ajaccio (LFKJ), Corte (LFKT), Calvi (LFKC) and Bastia (LFKB) will be controlled during the evening.

What will the challenge be? Well, you will have to depart from Ajaccio, make a stop at Corte and then Calvi, to finally reach Bastia.

 Charts

Don't forget that you can get any required chart from the SIA website, either in the AIP section for IFR flights or in the Preflight briefing for VAC.

 Sceneries

IVAO France compiles most of regional and airport sceneries within a list, regularly updated available from the IVAO France website, Pilot section.

 ATC

Booking your position is still managed by the IVAO booking system. Do not hesitate to ask FIR staff to assist: they love helping people!
