Fellow AVSIMers,Just a quick note that the sixth annual 2008 Round the World Race will begin on Saturday at 1630Z (1130 EST).You are invited to join Team AVSIM.Each year, teams from three of the main forums in our hobby speed around the world in a relay race. They fly in real time and in real weather, mostly in fast propeller aircraft. There is nothing quite so much fun as taking the baton through dark stormy weather to land at a tiny island airport

bumpy...

If you would like to fly, we'd love to have you with us.As one veteran put it, "You can't have more fun with your pants on."
