Shalom and greetings all my pals,

I decided for first time to participate in one of the flights of this annual world famous and world renowned World Flight Group that holds annual one week long non stop Vatsim event flying many flights around the world from airport of departure to fly around the world stopping in many airports for refueling back to orginal airport to raise money for noble charity causes.

Here is info on this charity: http://www.worldflightgroup.com/. Here is live video of flights:

Here are simple screenshots with nothing fancy editing for my participation in one of the flights called World Flight Group flight number WF1013 from SLLP to SGAS. What I did NOT expect was to wait whopping 50 minutes in the SLLP airport for my chance to take off!!! What a busy airport!!!

That is my EL AL 777-200LR with MONSTER GE90 ENGINES at gate with other many planes

Look how busy the airport was for this event!!!

I finally got clearance for push back, engine start, and taxi to taxiway A short of runway 10 only to find myself waiting 20 minutes for my turn to take off!! Oh the other two pilots were reported by SLLP controllers to Vatsim board for cutting the line and taxiing to runway 10 without permission from controllers.

After almost one hour wait at SLLP, finally airbone cruising at FL350 doing mach 0.87 to make up for loss of time waiting at the airport

ONE SECOND before touchdown on SGAS runway 20 Yeah I can land on piano bars if I want:):)

TOUCHDOWN

Tires keep producing cool tire smoke while front wheel was gliding down to touchdown

Look how busy SGAS was also for this event

Thank you for viewing!!
