BRIEFING DOCUMENTATION
Tour Briefing	This tour was organized by American Express. It made nine stops as it proceeded west round-the-world in 18 days. This tour begins in Paris and travels Westbound around the world, stopping in: New York, NY; Oakland, CA; Honolulu, HI; Papeete, Tahiti; Sydney, Australia; Jakarta, Indonesia; Bangkok, Thailand; Colombo, Sri Lanka; Bahrain; and back to Paris. This 10 leg tour was the first Round the World Tour for Air France and covers a distance of 26,822 miles (43,166 km) and has a flight time of 17 hours and 58 minutes. Effective Jan 1st, 2024, although most of these are AFC flights, the tour is open to all aircraft types; however, please fly it in the Concorde for maximum enjoyment. If you do fly the Concorde, please remember to review NOTAM #35: Effective immediately: rules on supersonic Concorde flight. You will still NOT be permitted to fly Supersonic overland while flying Concorde, however, each flight will now be graded on its own merits rather than sticking to one hard and fast rule. • We will now take into consideration real-world Concorde activity, and you will be able to fly over designated populated areas that were allowed in Concorde in real-world operations. • Flying Supersonic overland will NOT be allowed under instruction from 3rd party ATC controllers (Vatsim, IVAO, etc) As the Pilot in command, you have the power to reject any such requests and to stay within the AFVA rules. • You can fly supersonic over unpopulated Islands but please do your research first and if in doubt message a member of staff for confirmation before making your flight. • Flights will not be rejected if you accidentally cross land at low supersonic speeds but may be held for clarification as to why this happened.
