With the huge success of the Murray Field 2006 fly-in we decided to hit another challenging airport. This month we chose Cambridge to test out the new VOZ 1.2 winter textures. Not to mention the challenge of conducting General Aviation movements so close to an international airport in class D airspace.
The flight to and from Cambridge will be visually spectacular and challenging, I hope you will join us.
Location: Cambridge Airport (YCBG)
Date: Wed 28th June 2006
Time: WST: 1730 CST: 1900 EST: 1930 UTC: 0930
