BRIEFING DOCUMENTATION | |||||
Tour Briefing | This tour was organized by Goodwood Travel. It made ten stops as it proceeded east round-the-world in 18 days. This tour begins in London-Heathrow and travels Eastbound around the world, stopping in Moscow, Russia; Cairo, Egypt; New Delhi, India; Hong Kong, China; Beijing, China; Guam; Honolulu, HI; Mexico City, Mexico; Barbados; New York, NY; and back to London. This 11-leg tour was a Round the World Tour for British Airways. It covered a distance of 27,994 miles (45,052 km) and had a flight time of 20 hours and 46 minutes. Effective Jan 1st, 2024, although some of these flights 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 staff member 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. |
