You might ask, What is world flight?


World Flight is a series of virtual flights around the world with the intention to raise money for charity purposes. Teams offers their cockpits between 5th and 11th of November 2007 to circumnavigate the globe in 45 legs. They are not alone in doing this:

10 teams worldwide are participating the same event. They are raising money for their local charity organizations (see list below).

These flights will be conducted in real time "online" with the VATSIM network(add link). VATSIM brings real people together who share their passion for flight and air traffic control. When you contact that controller or pilot, you aren't contacting a computer generated voice or image - you will be communicating with a real person who shares the same interests as you! Pilots will see other aircrafts, and the virtual air traffic controllers will see the aircraft on their radar scopes like in the real world of aviation!
