A Year of Tuesday Night Flying on VATSIM

Every Tuesday evening, FlyBus pilots gather on Discord for our weekly group flights on VATSIM. Throughout 2025, we've explored routes from the USA to Europe, journeyed to Rovaniemi, and celebrated with a Hogmanay finale from Paris to Edinburgh. These flights have become a cornerstone of our community, bringing pilots together for shared adventures in the virtual skies.
