# Community goals

Community goals are targets every Canada Air Virtual pilot flies toward together. Each month there are usually two: one about how much we fly, and one about where we land.

## The two kinds of goals

| Kind | Example | What counts |
|---|---|---|
| **Volume** | *3,500 flights this month*, *around the world 130 times*, *7,500 hours in the air* | Every accepted flight in the month adds its flight, hours or distance. |
| **Airports** | *Every Canadian airport we serve*, *every CAV hub* | A landing at one of the goal's airports ticks it off for everyone. Each airport only needs to be ticked once. |

Every flight counts, whatever you fly it with, as long as the PIREP is accepted. A PIREP waiting for review counts as soon as it's accepted.

## Where to follow them

- **Crew Centre** on the website and the **Home** screen in CAVacars 2: a progress bar for each goal, and for airport goals the airports still needed that are nearest to you.
- **The goal page** (click a goal): the progress, your own share, and for airport goals a map with every airport (green when ticked off, red when still needed). The list of missing airports starts with the ones nearest to where you landed last, each with a **Find flights** link. Ticked airports show who got there first.
- **After each flight**, the summary in CAVacars 2 tells you what your flight added: *"Your flight added 420 nm to Around the world: 63% done"* or *"CYTS ticked off! 61 of 94"*.
- **What should I fly tonight?** suggests flights to airports a goal still needs, marked **Community goal**.
- **Discord** announces each goal when it starts, posts at 25%, 50%, 75% and 100%, and wraps up when the month ends.

## The Community Flyer achievement

Every flight that counts toward a community goal counts toward the **Community Flyer** achievement: during a volume goal that's every accepted flight, and during an airport goal it's every landing at one of the goal's airports (even one someone else ticked off first).

| Tier | Flights |
|---|---|
| Bronze | 1 |
| Silver | 25 |
| Gold | 100 |

Like other achievements, it counts flights filed with CAVacars 2.

## Questions

**Do I have to sign up?**
No. Fly as usual: every accepted flight that fits a goal counts.

**What if we don't reach a goal?**
Nothing is lost. The goal ends with the month and a new one starts. Your flights still count toward Community Flyer.

**Which airports does "every airport we serve" mean?**
The airports our schedules fly to, fixed when the goal starts. The goal page lists all of them.
