In the absence of any better suggestion, how about this?

We're using JoinFS (latest version) and the Skypark hub to connect. Comms through the A2A community on Discord.
We've just finished our "navigation exercise" and had a blast. It looks like next week we'll be exploring Oregon, again in T-6s. Check this forum for an update!

Our flight was a blast! At first, I thought the flight plan looked pretty mundane; just a triangular cross-country hop over basically flat terrain... man, was I wrong! Ratty led the flight and took care of navigation, while the rest of us tried to maintain a decent formation. It was challenging! We gradually improved our formation technique throughout the flight, finishing up over our home base with a formation fighter break and landing. The scenery was very nice. I really enjoyed the flight.

Sounds like it was fun I’ll have to join for next flight, in a Harvard.
The RCAF hop caught my attention. I have a strange magnetic attraction to those old bases and find myself flying to them often. For the romantic type, they are a very special places. These are just a few pics I snapped today after I shot some circuits at the old base. The runways are..rough. With 850 tires it’s not so bad though. I plan on getting permisson to explore the insides of the hangers many of which are being restored. I don’t think you’ll find a more original ww2 airbase as this one in North America.
