This is a new type of competition.

Here we will try to fly from the South-End of Provence to the North-East of the Alps and all the way back in several races. For this we use the three sceneries "Provence", "Alpi3" and "EasternAlps 2.0". These three sceneries offer the possibility to land on an airfield in one scenery and takeoff from the same airfield in an other scenery.

There will be 2 races a week, the first starting sunday and the next one on thursday. The main racetime will be 18:00 UTC, but we offer also a server on 06:00 UTC and 12:00 UTC which means max. 96 pilots, 32 in for each servertime can participate.

Servers will be active for exact 5 hours so be sure to finish before server stops!

There will be 15 racedays to complete the course, your best 10 will be scored.

There are 2 weeks of training (4 races) before the competition starts.

And now fun for everyone :-)
