Welcome to the New Zealand Challenge 2013!

 

Challenger Club proudly presents 6th edition of traditional

New Year's event that creates smiles on pilots faces since 2006![/size]

After last years very successful Trans-African Challenge 2012 where pilots from all

over the world registered in total over 480 flights on VATSIM network with their GA

airplanes, flown 74.000 Nm and logged over 32.000 minutes, we this year invite

you to discover beautiful New Zealand!

 

Here is what we plan to do. As tradition dictates, New Zealand Challenge 2013 will officially start as

soon as the first seconds of upcoming new year will strike. So, after you wake up in the new morning,

take a sip of coffee and slowly join us with your favorite GA airplane, we start on 01.01.2013 at

NZNV (Invercargill airport) and finish our journey at the tip of the New Zealand's North Island on

10.01.2013. All of you who wish to join us at a later time, you can do that by the end of 5th of

January 2013, giving you enough time to finish all stages with ease.
