Tonight we head to South America for a VATSIM Thursday airline operation aboard the PMDG Boeing 737-800, flying from Silvio Pettirossi International Airport in Paraguay down to the famous Santos Dumont Airport in Rio de Janeiro, Brazil.
This route combines long-range IFR airline procedures with one of the most spectacular arrivals in commercial aviation. Crossing into Brazilian airspace, we’ll navigate busy VATSIM ATC coverage, regional weather systems, and complex terminal operations before descending into Santos Dumont — surrounded by Rio’s coastline, mountains, and dense urban landscape.
SBRJ is one of the most iconic airports in the world, demanding precision flying and strong situational awareness as we arrive directly beside the heart of Rio de Janeiro.
A perfect mix of immersive airline operations and breathtaking scenery.
