This is the thread to discuss everything related to the Fall 2016 edition of the Festival of FlightGear.


*************************************************************
Recommended: The FlightGear ATC webpage is a good resource for ATCs to register their schedules and for pilots to File flightplans

Fall 2016 edition: November 5th and 6th, 2016 (FSWeekend 2016)
Time: All weekend Sat 00:00-Sun 23:59 UTC

The Festival of FlightGear is a biannual "fly-in" event taking place in Spring and Fall:


  • the Spring edition is held in March in a region outside Europe;
  • the Fall edition is held in Europe and coincides with the FSWeekend "real world event" at Lelystad.

This first post will be the only one containing up-to-date information about the Festival and will be updated to provide you with links to the latest airport charts/ground networks/Route Manager files/helpful resources for the Fall 2016 edition only.

If we gave everybody in the World free software today, but we failed to teach them about the four freedoms, five years from now, would they still have it?

Legoboyvdlp would like to control in this event.
I am not certain where...

Heathrow, Gatwick (as ground / tower), Manchester, Belfast come to mind.
