Dear SimFlyers,
we are proud to officially announce the release date of the new Touch & Win mission!
The event will take place on May 19, 2026, from 08:00 Zulu until 15:00 Zulu.
After months of development, testing, and improvements, we are now entering the final preparation phase for the launch of this new competitive experience dedicated to all SimFly pilots. Touch & Win introduces a new way to compete on SimFly, based on precision, performance, and final leaderboard rankings.
To help everyone participate correctly, we have also prepared a complete video tutorial explaining how the Touch & Win mission works, how to participate, and how the leaderboard system operates.
In addition, all official details will soon also be available on the SimFly Wiki.

We strongly recommend that all pilots watch the tutorial before participating in the event.
In the tutorial, we explain how to participate in the mission, the required requirements, the final prizes, the new T&W Events section, the new dedicated section inside the Flight Report, and many other new features.
It is important to specify that the first Touch & Win event will be released as a Beta event, designed to allow the SimFly team to verify that all systems, leaderboards, data synchronization, and the overall infrastructure are functioning correctly before the introduction of the final official events.
But that’s not all.
Together with the release of the new Touch & Win mission, SimFly will also introduce a massive wave of platform updates.
This will not be a simple patch, but a major structural release designed to improve stability, performance, scalability, mission management, leaderboards, rewards, and the overall quality of the SimFly experience.
What’s coming with this release?
• New Touch & Win system
• New and more performant Sky Ranking system
• Improved prize and rewards management
• Backend and database optimizations
• New flight processing pipeline
• Improved system stability
• Improved logging and monitoring

This release represents months of work, testing, debugging, and optimizations from the entire SimFly team.
Thank you for your continuous support and for the passion you show every day toward SimFly.
