Get ready for some friendly competition, everyone!
We’ve been hard at work to bring you the latest and greatest features to add even more fun to your flying adventures. With our newest update, you can now challenge your friends and fellow pilots with our new Leaderboards and Hall of Fame features. Let’s dive into the details!
The essence of adventure and camaraderie takes flight with our new Leaderboards and Hall of Fame features. Whether it’s showcasing who can glide the furthest or climb the highest, Gaggle now offers a new playground for friendly competition.

Celebrate annual excellence with Gaggle, where top achievements in speed, altitude, and more are immortalized.

Why Personal Achievements Differ
In Gaggle, personal milestones reflect your individual journey, while Leaderboards and the Hall of Fame introduce a layer of community interaction and recognition. These features enrich your flying narrative, offering new dimensions of engagement and achievement. With this in mind, the algorithms for personal achievements and leaderboards work differently.
We are Particularly excited about this one, pilots! The “Waypoint Hunt” is designed to quench your thirst for adventure. Navigate to hidden waypoints, each carrying a score based on difficulty and intrigue, encouraging you to explore the uncharted. Perfect for both solo flights and group events, it’s time to make every flight an expedition. Bring some adventure to your next fly-in event by creating a Waypoint Hunt for your group.
This update is just the beginning. With your adventures as our inspiration, we’re dedicated to continually expanding and refining Gaggle. Your flights, feedback, and fellowship will guide us as we aim to support and celebrate the flying community.
Dive into these new features and share your experiences. Your feedback fuels our innovation, ensuring Gaggle remains your indispensable companion in the sky.
