POGO MADNESS
Did you say POGO?
POGO are standard routes linking aerodromes near to Paris. That is why you could see a Boeing 777 over Disneyland Paris, not more than flying between Paris Charles-de-Gaulle and Paris Orly.
Let's do it! France division invites you to improve your skills flying these tiny POGO procedures on Saturday 25th February, between 14:00 UTC and 18:00 UTC.
PILOTS
Several airports will be open for the whole event. You have to fly, whatever the way, between Paris Charles-de-Gaulle (LFPG) and Paris Orly (LFPO), or between Toussus-le-Noble (LFPN) and Pontoise (LFPT).
Every POGO procedure leads to vectors to the final approach axis. Be careful and follow the procedures as much as possible.
In your flight plan, you should write "DCT" in Route section (Section 15) and "RMK/POGO" in Remarks section (Section 18).
Please remember:
- Be ready and have your charts
- You may be asked to follow heading, proceed directly to waypoints (or hold)
- Pay attention not to obstruct ongoing communication, particularly joining a new frequency
- Do not hesitate to take more fuel than expected
- Enjoy! :)
