Around the world for a real-world cause

Team Covey runs a continuous simulator operation to engage the community and raise funds for the Royal Flying Doctor Service.

What is WorldFlight?

WorldFlight is a long-haul charity event where crews fly a planned global route non-stop while streaming operations live. Team Covey uses the event to turn simulation into practical fundraising support for the people and communities served by RFDS across Australia.

RFDS Primary Charity Focus

From simulator cockpit to community impact

The event combines operations, broadcasting, and community participation into a structured fundraising campaign.

1. Plan the route

Operations build a realistic multi-leg route, flight timeline, and handover windows for sustained simulator coverage.

2. Rotate crews

Pilots and support crew run the simulator in shifts, keeping the flight moving while maintaining safety and consistency.

3. Stream every leg

The full journey is broadcast live to grow visibility, connect with supporters, and communicate charity milestones in real time.

4. Raise for RFDS

Donations are directed to RFDS, helping fund access to health services for people in regional and remote Australia.

Why this mission matters

WorldFlight is not just a flying challenge. It is a coordinated effort to support healthcare access where distance is a barrier.
