We tried this kind of setup on our August 6 flight, also in the South of England. It was good fun, let's do it again!

For this event we start at Redhill (EGKR), the route depends upon the decisions made during the flight.

I could not describe the procedure nearly as good, so I copied Mike's description from his post:

The Scramble Setup
The “instigator” takes the lead by announcing the initial departure airport to set the stage before the event begins. On the day of the event, he will write down the names of the arriving participants and then randomly order those names in a sequenced “planner roster”. At departure time, the list will be published on TeamSpeak. Participants who join after the beginning will be added at the end of the list.

Then, at the start time, the instigator will announce the first destination. We shall fly to that airport. When everyone arrives, the next name on the ordered list becomes the next “planner” who will announce the next destination. We repeat the process until the ordered list is exhausted at which time we cycle back to the original planner. And so forth until we are done.

Notes.
- Having the list openly available will allow the next “planner” a little extra time to choose the next leg. As soon as he knows the airport from which to depart, he can begin to think about a suitable subsequent destination. There is no hurry to do this quickly. And this week we might take more time than is necessary while we work on how to do this well.
- Any pilot may “pass” on taking the planner role, either on a particular turn or altogether, as he wishes. (Pilots who have only limited access to a map may find it difficult to pick suitable airports “on the fly”.)
- Legs may follow any pattern. They may move in a single direction or they may veer left or right or may double back to create a jumble of directions.
- For this week, legs should be short as we want to fly low and slow and visit many airfields.
 

Documentation
There is no actual flightplan. The route depends upon the decisions made during the flight.

 

Aircraft
We want to fly low and slow and a biplane like the Tiger Moth would be an excellent airplane to do this. Other slow planes like the Husky are also suitable. Cruising with about 100 kias is sufficient. As ever, please fly what you like.

 

Additional Scenery
As we don't know in advance where we will make stops enroute, there is no special scenery needed. We should use only airfields that are in the MSFS database. There are many excellent addons for this part of England available, payware and freeware.

 

Time and Weather
Please set your simulator for a 2 pm local takeoff. We try real weather....

This should be fun.

If we are flying out of Redhill, then we need a spot for an early Tiger Moth. Red-Silver G-ACDC, Delta Charlie, was the third Tiger Moth and is still flying for the Tiger Club. It was featured in the film “A Tigers Tale – The Tiger Moth Story” (1992), filmed when the club was still at Redhill. (If you like, see this segment on Youtube.)


“Delta Alpha” at Redhill

I’ll fly “older brother” G-ACDA painted by Jan Kees Blom in the livery used in its youthful pre-War years. Tiger Moth G-ACDA, Delta Alpha, was the first prototype Gipsy Major powered DH82A Tiger Moth and joined the de Havilland School of Flying in February 1933. It then served as a War-time RAF trainer and after the War was put into private ownership. In the hands of (only) four owners, Delta Alpha has been meticulously restored. It remains active in the UK.

Doh! Ya diddit agin!

I will fly VH-AZF 1971 as done by Jan Kees Blom. 

Sorry, could not make it..
