Chriet and Otto have really outdone themselves this year. Shivering from excitement for the upcoming ski trip, they have created a beautiful song: 'VSV im Schnee'. Download the song here and start practicing, so we can all start avalanches in Saint-Sorlin. 

You feel like you haven’t had enough flying experience with the Faculties introduction flights, and want to soar the skies some more? This is your chance!

On Friday, May 14th, airplanes will depart from different airfields throughout the Netherlands, and head for the Belgian airfield Ursel. Every aircraft has its pilot, and together with the three passengers they form a team for the whole weekend. Arriving at Ursel, the setting sun can be enjoyed, together with a nice BBQ.

We will stay at the airfield for the night, and start Saturday with a flight briefing on the Rally itself. The rally is actually a navigational flight, with navigation exercises, photographical challenges, theoretical questions and on top of that a precision landing! You will prepare the whole flight with your team, and when you are finished there will be plenty of time to watch the other teams. An evening program for Saturday is still being developed.

Sunday is departure day, and all airplanes will leave Ursel for their home bases throughout the day.

The total costs for the weekend will be around €200, this includes all flying, accommodation and living expenses!

Are you interested, and eager to fly along? Subscribe! We will try to match you with one of the available airplanes.
