Worldflight Team USA: A Heartfelt Return

[Trevor Hale]

OCTOBER 4th, 2024 - Dear Friends, Supporters, and Fellow Aviators,
 
After a four-year hiatus, Worldflight Team USA is proud to announce our return to the Worldflight Charity Event, a cause so close to our hearts. This year's mission holds extra significance as we once again take to the skies to raise vital funds for All Children's Hospital in St. Petersburg, Florida.

 The journey back has not been an easy one. The world has faced immense challenges during the COVID-19 pandemic, and our team, too, has experienced profound loss. We honor the memories of two cherished crew members who are no longer with us, whose spirits will forever soar alongside us on every flight. Their dedication to this cause and their passion for aviation continue to inspire us.

 This return is about more than just flying. It's about resilience, community, and remembering why we started this journey—to help children and families in need. We're beyond grateful to rejoin the global effort to make a difference through this incredible event.

 Thank you for your unwavering support during these difficult years. We invite you to join us, as we take off once again, with hearts full of hope and wings lifted by those who believed in the power of giving.

 Let's fly together, for the kids.

 With gratitude and love, Worldflight Team USA

Hi Trev.

Good news
May be an opportunity for the crew to chime in and tell each-other where we are at, what is in the hangar, and post some pics of our birds

Best regards
Jack

On behalf on the other US team for WF ( team cali crew ) welcome back! Sadly we don't think we will be making it this year. Our sim from last year left the team and we had to find and buy a new sim and currently trying to get it down from canada winnipeg. Trying to set that up and train the pilots to be up to standard might not be enough time. But so happy to see you guys back. Your the reason why I got into WF - Anthony

Thanks Anthony, it's been a long time and I am sad you won't be able to join us this year. We do have a skeleton crew this year and I expect to fly Eastern daylight flights for the most part. Maybe 8-9pm kind of thing.  Would be happy to have you chime in on the streams and let us know when you are around. I am really glad you were able to find another simulator and hopefully we can get you back in the sky soon!  We are all humbled that we brought another group into the Worldflight scene. But none of us will take responsibility for the sickness you are now addicted to lol. 

See you soon.

You couldn't be more correct. I am sure there will be lots to talk about.   And feel free to kick that off. 

We have missed too much already!

Hey Trevor,

Long time no hear say outta me, but I do check in from time to time....
Gotta say I'm glad to see WF Team getting back together. May I ask where and whose sim? Is it still at Sam's place?

Kind Regards,

John

Hi John,

Yes still at Sam's in Sarasota.  Great to hear you are still doing well.  Looking forward to getting back into the annual routine.

Any Link to video ?

[Trevor Hale]

All the videos are on my twitch channel.  twitch.tv/cockpitbuilders

Feel free to check them out.  WF2401 is the start.  You will also see our struggles at the beginning with audio and various other issues, until we had the issues sorted by the 2nd day.

Just for the record, I'll chime in that I'm glad to see the team back up and flying.  I am sad I no longer live in Tampa so I could join you (last year - and next year).
My goal is to get team together here in Greece for this year, flying my sim.

as long as we can preplan travel details in advance, would be a terrific idea

I've got plenty of space for people to crash!

As long as Sam is in for another Year, we will be back for November 2025...  This year putting together a normal Team, so we also are going to be looking for some volunteers for This November.

[dougsnow]

I too am back. November is always a very busy month for me. I am an international standards flight dispatcher in Memphis (still), and Nov is my base month for my Desk Checkride. 

I'm planning on being in SRQ this Nov, but I will have to be gone for a couple of days (Nov 3-5) for a quick business trip/meeting at Cessna/Textron in ICT.  I'm planning on driving down to SRQ, as a few days of backroads driving is a nice way to disconnect.

[Trevor Hale]

Great News Doug, I will have more information as we get closer!

Also... On a side note, I fixed the email notifications...  

Thanks for the heads up!
