Project Overview

 

 

This online event assumes that you have Microsoft Flight Simulator 2004 on your computer and that you have installed the FS9.1 update.

 

At one time or other most flight simmer’s have considered taking off into the virtual skies on a round the world solo flight. Though many have taken up this challenge, far fewer have actually completed the voyage.  Make no mistake; flying “solo” around the world is not an easy undertaking.  Not by a long shot!   While we can’t actually search for Madeleine through this flight simulation based project, the true "search" for Madeleine will take place in your heart!  

 

“What Is In Your Heart?”

 

Would you consider circumnavigating the globe if you had the full support of Team SurClaro behind you every inch of the way? Would it make a difference if your decision to circumnavigate the globe were for a good cause?

Cause: To show your support of the broken and anguished hearts of thousands of parents worldwide whose children go missing every year!   

 

The

SurClaro Virtual Pilot’s Association

And

Team SurClaro

are currently seeking volunteer pilots from the worldwide flight simulation community to join us in our “Round The World Virtual Search For Madeleine McCann”.  The true purpose behind this project is to raise public awareness to the plight of our dear, darling Miss Madeleine McCann, who went missing from Praia Da Luz, Portugal on 03/05/07, and sorrowfully remains missing to this day. 

 

For us, Madeleine McCann represents every single missing child on a global scale!

 

THIS VIRTUAL FLIGHT EVENT IS NOT A RACE!!!

There is no prize or award for being first to complete the flight!

 

The prize, if there were one, will be your personal satisfaction of having taken up the challenge of virtually flying solo around the world to raise awareness and honor all missing children and their families who have been separated, and to raise public awareness to the plight of thousands of other parents around the world whose children have gone missing! We feel this is a worthwhile concept and every flight simulation enthusiast around the world is invited to help!

 

This project is designed as a leisurely flight event with no finish date under consideration at this time.           

 

All volunteer pilots are asked to take their time, enjoy the flight challenge and visit

 

www.findmadeleine.com

 

OFTEN!

 

Aircraft

 

 

We have designated the FS2004 Raytheon Beech King Air 300 as our official search aircraft!  A very special, one of a kind, limited edition paint scheme has been applied (thanks, GS!).  We highly encourage all volunteer pilots to use only our official “limited edition aircraft” for this project!  All participating pilots are encouraged to take as much time as necessary to become familiar with this aircraft before beginning taking up the first leg of this event.

 

 

Flight Plan Options

 

 

There are currently Two (2) Flight Plan Options available to every pilot:

 

ONE:  Design your own route around the world from a start/finish point of your own choosing.  

We would like you to declare your starting and finish airport information, dates, times, etc when you file for your Pilot Application.  We encourage all pilots to make use of Real World Weather conditions as much as possible. We wish you good luck and all success. We will be very interested in hearing about your progress and flight adventures from time to time in the SurClaro Forums.

 

TWO: RD’s Around the World Flight Adventures for finding Madeleine McCann

Our own Ardie/RD (Top Dog Moderator @ SurClaro.com) has created a series of flight adventures, to help find Madeleine McCann. These flights will take you around the world. There are 21 flights, with predetermined Flight legs. Each flight will have something unique. You may have crosswinds, turbulence, rain, snow, or a nice sunny flight. You will have to bear the fact that everything is unexpected! Only God knows what Ardie has in store for you. If you select this option, a new leg of each flight can be downloaded from the downloads section. New flights are released each and every Friday, for the course of 21 weeks. If you don't finish a flight before the next one is available, that is not a problem! Fly the flights as you have time for. All flights will be available as you need them. Good luck! We think you will need it. 

 

Please post flight adventures, aircraft performance, weather conditions, etc. you encountered on:
