Team Jet Sim took on a challenge to virtually circumnavigate the globe in a full-sized Boeing 737-800 simulator in seven days for Worldflight 2016. Richard Benedikz reports on the week’s events.

Worldflight is a major event in the flight simulation community. It is held annually every November with teams flying full cockpit simulators non-stop around the world for seven days and seven nights to raise money for charity. Besides the official teams, it also attracts a host of flight simmers who wish to join the pack on the journey.
