Raising money for charity by flying the world's best home-built Boeing 747-400 simulator. In support this year of The Lullaby Trust @LullabyTrust

We could collaborate and fly the sacked ones home! 😂😂

With a just a few days to go until the start of Worldflight, the @simfest team got a boost from their favourite Captain.. @capthlr! We deffo haven’t all binge watched this over the last 2 months.

Really looking forward to adding to the £43k we raised for @LullabyTrust last year

[Simfest Team @simfest]

We got bored whilst we were stuck in a hold this weekend... this was the result! https://t.co/OoDmRRzVwc

[Rob Terrace @rmt_1982]

great to see the @simfest guys go past £16000 in their 168 hour stream flying around the world in 49 steps in their simulator. They'll get to £20k no problem. 3 days to go

[Simfest Team @simfest]

We're just about to commence our pushback, come join us on stream https://t.co/GUeqggxrNy

[Simfest Team @simfest]

Our first official event of the year is next weekend, but if you can't wait that long rumour has it G-BNLL is being fired up... standby at https://t.co/GUeqggxrNy

It's #simsunday! Where are you flying today?

[Simfest Team @simfest]

What a great photo of @BoeingAirplanes' finest! (Four engines, obviously, not two :)). https://t.co/es0WGzYUC2

New favourite photo of the @British_Airways Queen. Landing at SFO courtesy of someone on Reddit. Thought you BA folk would enjoy especially @jumbo747pilot . @benwhitworth1 @DaveWallsworth @shesgotwings777 @LadySpeedbird @PilotKateBees

[Simfest Team @simfest]

Morning! Shall we get #simsunday rolling? What's everybody up to? Who's (virtual) flying today? Tweet your pics and screenshots! #simsunday

[Wayne Hickman @waynehickman81]

This would make a beautiful British Airways postcard, Dont you agree?

[Tim Byatt @Tim_the_Pilot]

How much would you pay to be allowed to stand here and witness this ? One or two people must have some stunning photos ! This is B747-100 G-AWND (later destroyed in Kuwait in 1991), touching down at the new Mount Pleasant airport, in the Falkland Islands, in 1985. @falklands_utd

Each year we choose a different charity to raise money for. In 2018 we're proud to be supporting @contact_teas who do amazing work to combat loneliness. Let's all raise some awareness and here's to beating last year's total of £25,000! https://t.co/weTLL38zPF

[Simfest Team @simfest]

@Magsmeister23 That is a long story! It is mostly constructed from real 747 parts, a lot of coding wizardry(/black magic) and Aerowinx PSX. https://t.co/LfgvZLg7n3 gives a bit of an overview - as does https://t.co/bypC6RxtQT - happy to answer any questions you may have!

[Simfest Team @simfest]

We'll have to get the Simfest Performance Dept on to updating our BACARS software with the correction code ;) https://t.co/Sm1hTnb3SJ

[Simfest Team @simfest]

One of the joys of the sim is that we can take it to places real 747s wouldn't go near. The photos don't do the Samos sunset justice!

[Simfest Team @simfest]

Things have certainly changed a bit in the last 60 years. Some might have appreciated an SRA to runway 23 with the wind today though! https://t.co/PWHssppEvt

[Simfest Team @simfest]

Preparing G-BNLL for a little tour around Europe last weekend. MAN-LHR is a bit shorter than the average #B747 sector but lots of fun! #qots

[Andrew S-W @Andrew_SW]

"I'm coming to get you!"
As an @emirates @BoeingAirplanes 747 freighter is on finals into @HeathrowAirport, a @SingaporeAir @Airbus #A380 enters the approach...

[Simfest Team @simfest]

So, who's tried out our new PSX Dispatch Centre? https://t.co/AAgaz2WOJO
