Our intelligent service found out that enemies planned to bring to Gudauta airfield reinforcement from Tbilisi city. They planned to use several transport planes for this goal. @zedd and I received a task to intercept enemy transports before their landing at Gudauta.

Recently we discussed using civil aviation in our community. At the first, I am considering X-Plane because we can install photo scenery of any place for VFR flights.
