Hello Fellow Flyers,

First, thank you for taking my courses on Skillshare. I appreciate the support and the trust that you will get some value from my courses.

Next, I would like to invite you to a live stream on twitch. My twitch account is twitch.tv\forderlearntofly and my first test session is this Saturday, September 5th at 7pm eastern time or 11pm UTC/Greenwich Time. That's 6pm Central time, 5pm mountain and 4 pm Pacific time. You can figure out the Europe times etc.

This fist live stream session will have me simply fly a circuit around Toronto Island airport and have you join in if you can in multiplayer mode. We all start on the ramp. Please don't spawn on the runway. Checklists are in order, as in real flying. We might fly to Buttonville.

I won't be grading anyone. Just get together and fly or try.

I will be using the new Microsoft Flight Simulator and I know some of you can't install it yet. No worries; you can simply watch as I lead the multiplayer pack around the circuit. It could get pretty busy depending on how many fly with me.

I am testing the Twitch platform and asking for your suggestions at that time in the chat window. Any procedures from the courses can be covered at the time and in future twitch live streams.

Later in the week, for my second session, I will be doing an Autopilot demo from Victoria BC to Vancouver BC using the stock Cessna 172 (G1000) that comes with the program. I will ask each of you for the best day and time to have that session.

It's time to connect with each of you and the platforms are there, the flight simulator in all it's gorgeous VFR scenery is there and we can finally get closer to reality with these platforms.

I hope you will join me at that time. This is new and we will grow together in aviation.

Thank you for taking my courses. Many others new to flight simulation are asking how to fly properly. You have a head start.

Sincerely,
