First off, Thanks to all the pilots who participated for the first leg of this series of approaches even though it was Christmas eve. Being a first timer in organizing MP events, I didn't know how much would turn up. But you guys didn't disappoint me :D

Although the event went along perfectly with everyone landing safely although we had some go-around moments from 411, but he too landed safely after that.

Though the event went perfectly, it was not something I had imagined it to be. The winds that prevailed then made us opt for runway 26 and everyone went in for a straight-in approach. I wanted to see some circling approach to 08 and which would have made it more challenging. So, this time I've decided that instead of opting for the live weather we shall enter the METAR manually and make the approach more challenging. This will be applicable only if the weather is too easy. Hopefully, everyone agrees to it. After all this tour is about approaches that challenge our skills to the limits ;)

With all that out of the way, I would like to invite each and everyone of you to the second leg of the World's Challenging Approaches on the 13th of April 2017 at 17:00Z
