The skies have been fairly forgiving so far,
pilots, but things are about to get bumpy,
foggy, and downright alarming. You?ll also
be visiting new and even more challenging
airports. Feel that shaking? Or is it just
your hands?
Welcome to Sky Team Turbulence.
This is an expansion to the Sky Team base
game, offering new modules and new
scenarios at new destinations. fffl?

An alarm is sounding. There’s something going on with your
electronics. Elements of your panel are shorting out and
require attention.
ADDITIONAL SETUP

Place the Alarm board next to the Control Panel,
then shuffle the Alarm tokens and place them face
down in the spaces on the Alarm board.
RULES

If there is an Alarm symbol
in your Current
Position space at the beginning of a round, flip
any Alarm token face up. You may no longer use
that Action on the Control Panel until you reset the
system by removing the Alarm token. A die placed on
a space affected by an Alarm will have no effect.
If you are required to flip an Alarm token but they
have all been either flipped or removed, do nothing.
Removing Alarm tokens
If a player places a die of the
correct colour and number
onto the Alarm token, this
resets the system.
This means the Alarm token is immediately
removed from the Alarm board, along with the die,
which cannot be used again this round (you will be
able to use this die during the next round).
Players may now play on the corresponding Action
space.MODULES
CONTENTS
Sometimes you only get final clearance to land after you’ve
started your descent. You’ll have to work fast!
The game begins with the 5000 space in the Current Altitude
space instead of the 6000. This means you not only lose
your starting reroll token, you’ll also have one less turn to get
everything done!
For one reason or another, communication has become
impossible in the cockpit. It’s the ultimate test of trust.
If the symbol is in the Current Position screen at the end of
the round, players must skip the Strategy Discussion in Phase 1
and simply roll their dice at the beginning of the following round.

NOTE: There is no actual ice on the landing strip
here, but you’ll need a much stronger braking
system to perform an emergency landing.
Flying into unsettled weather, fog, or storms is all part
of the job. But that doesn’t make it any easier.
SETUP

Place the required Altitude Track (A, B, C,
or D) into the Altitude slot instead of the
standard Altitude Track.
RULES
When the Bad Visibility
or Turbulence symbol is in
the Current Altitude space, apply the rules for that event,
as described below.
TURBULENCE
Eddies in air currents caused by geographical features or
thermal pockets are easily explained in theory, but when your
wingtips are bending at impossible angles and your plane feels
like a roller coaster, you know that turbulence is no joke.
Every time you place a die on an Action,
reroll all your remaining dice.
BAD VISIBILITY
Despite your ability to fly with instruments only, coming out
of a fog bank to see the ground rushing up towards you is...
startling. To put it lightly.
When rolling your dice at the beginning of this round, both
players will only roll 2 dice, leaving the other 2 aside. The next
two times you place a die on an Action, take 1 of the dice you’ve
put aside, roll it, and put it behind your screen
with your other die (which you do not reroll).
In other words, replace the die you played.
You should never have more than 2 dice to
choose from every turn.
TURBULENCE +
BAD VISIBILITY
This is what it feels like to fly into a full-fledged storm;
you’re trying to land a bucking bronco while half-blindfolded.
You’ve had better days.
Only use 2 dice, like with the Bad Visibility
rule, but when you take a new die to replace
the one you have placed, roll both of your
available dice.
ALTITUDES
SETUP

Place two Intern tokens face down on each of the Engine spaces.
You will not be able to place dice here; this Action is no longer
mandatory.
RULES
Both players will roll all their
dice every round but will only
use three of them.
The Engines are inactive and you are gliding down toward the
ground. At the end of every round, advance both the Approach
Track and Altitude Track one space.

TER Lajes, Azores
You are out of fuel. Your engines have stopped. You’ll need to use all
your skills to guide your plane to a military airbase in the Azores.
It’s either that or crash into the Atlantic Ocean.

SETUP

The landing gear refuses to deploy. Place 3 Intern
tokens face down on the Landing Gear spaces. You
will not be able to place dice here. Your landing
gear is stuck!
You will only be using the 2 Alarm tokens
requiring blue dice and the Alarm token for the
Concentration space. Remove the 3 other Alarm
tokens from the game.
GAMEPLAY

You cannot place dice on the Landing Gear spaces, meaning the
blue Aerodynamics marker will stay at 5 for the entire game. You
do not need to have the Landing Gear switches engaged when
you land. You will use the brakes normally, which will represent
spoilers, reverse engines, etc.

WAW Warsaw Chopin
Your landing gear is stuck. It will not descend. You’ll need to
perform a belly landing at the Warsaw airport.
SETUP

Place the Wind module the other way around, with the arrows
pointing downward instead of up.
Instead of using Airplane tokens, use the Penguin tokens on
the Approach Track. We know very well that penguins don’t
fly... But look at how CUTE they are!!
NZIR Ice Runway
Antarctica. Home of the most unique airport in the world. On top
of the experience of landing on a sheet of ice, you will have to deal
with the intense headwinds whipping across the icy continent.
HND Haneda
WHAM! you have ploughed
headlong into a high-flying flock
of geese!! You maintain control,
but they’ve torn off some of the
housing and cracked a panel in
the cockpit. You should be able
to land in the Ukranian capital
without any trouble, but noise
and vibration caused by the
strikes have made flight-deck
communication impossible.
KBP Boryspil
PEK Beijing Capital
You’ve passed over the Yellow
Sea, and now you see the Yanshan
mountains bordering Mongolia in
the distance as you head toward
the north-east of Beijing.
There’s a thick covering of
cloud over the Chinese capital,
with only a few breaks… You’re
going to have to rely on your
instruments for this one.
SYD Kingsford Smith
You’ve been in the air for
14 hours. You’ve just
completed your wide turn
to the right to approach
Sydney from the south.
The electronics seem to be
glitching. You’ll have to keep
your cool to take care of the
systems as they crash.
CPT Cape Town
After a first loop over the
Cape of Good Hope and
False Bay, you try a second
approach. This is the
place where oceans come
together and the sea winds
buffet the mountains.
Flight conditions here
are tough.

TER Lajes, Azores
You need to make an emergency
landing. Your plane has run
out of fuel and your engines
are down. Your only hope is a
military base on an isolated
island in the Azores. You will
have to make multiple turns to
slow the aircraft and activate
a stronger braking system to
successfully pull this off.
SXM Princess Juliana
You promised your intern an
interesting landing, and he
won’t be disappointed. This
is the famous airport whose
landing strip starts at the edge
of a beach full of people. You’ll
have to handle the turbulence
carefully on the way down,
you wouldn’t want to ruin
someone’s day at the beach!
DUS Düsseldorf
You’re coming in to
Düsseldorf on fumes. You’ve
got a fuel leak and there
are storms throughout the
Rhineland region, meaning
your visibility is going to be
patchy at best on the way
down. Keep focused and
you’ll be fine.
MAD Madrid–Barajas
You’ve passed over the
Portuguese Serra da Estrela
mountain range and turn
south at Salamanca. You get
word that there is heavy traffic
over the Spanish capital. You
descend slowly, turning north-
east over Toledo, and at 5,000
feet you get clearance to land.
You’ll have to work quickly!
WAW Warsaw Chopin
You tried to deploy your landing
gear... to no avail. You’ll have to
perform a belly landing, but first
you’ll need to circle high above the
Polish capital to burn the remainder
of your fuel. The last thing you
need is a full tank when the sparks
start to fly. The F-16s have kept you
company for everyone’s safety,
but now it’s time to put her down.
Carefully, very carefully.
SXM Princess Juliana
This is white-knuckle time.
A heavy storm is lashing the
Caribbean, and this landing
is always tricky. Bad visibility
just before landing, with people
on the beach (yes, even in this
weather!), is raising your pulse
significantly. It’s going to take
all your concentration to make
this work.
WAW Warsaw Chopin
The landing gear is stuck.
You’re going to have to
perform a belly landing in a
gale. Now as you start your
descent, an alarm sounds.
Looks like the landing gear
wasn’t the only issue. A bead
of sweat trickles down your
brow as you turn to your
co-pilot. Time to land.
SYD Kingsford Smith
You’ll remember this 10-hour
flight from Tokyo for a while.
Near-constant turbulence as you
flew over storm after storm. Sydney
will offer you more of the same,
it seems. You’ll have to descend
through thick cloud and driving
rain. Visibility will be low, and it will
be a bumpy ride. The electronics
have just started to act up as well.
Hang on tight!

NZIR Ice Runway
A strong headwind from the Pole
shakes your cargo and the few
passengers you have aboard.
Welcome to Antarctica. The ice
in November is still thick enough
to support a landing. This is the
first time you’ve seen the famous
“Ice Runway” with your own eyes.
Landing an airliner in this remote
location seems unreal. Wait... are
those... penguins on the runway??
DUS Düsseldorf
An alarm goes off. The fuel
level of your starboard tank
has dropped drastically. On
top of this, it’s early July, peak
tourist season in the Northern
Rhineland region of Germany,
and the sky is full of planes.
You’ll have some maneuvering
to do on your way in... But you
need to land. Now.
CPT Cape Town
You’ll be coming in to Cape Town
Airport from the north. Table
Mountain to the west and the
craggy Jonkershoek Mountains
to the east mean turbulence is
always a possibility. But today,
foggy conditions will give you a
very, very low ceiling. Your intern
has just alerted you to a problem
with the electrical systems.
Steel yourselves.
PEK Beijing Capital
A heavy storm front is moving in
quickly over the Beijing Capital
International Airport region,
carried by some heavy winds.
It’s going to be a very bumpy
descent, and visibility will be
low. Very low. You take a breath
and switch on the intercom to
inform the passengers, reminding
yourself to sound confident.
NZIR Ice Runway
High winds are whipping across
the Ross Archipelago, driven snow
almost completely hiding McMurdo
Station from view. This means
a number of course corrections
during your descent. Your intern is
excited for the opportunity to land
on the Antarctic ice runway, but
will she keep her nerve? This is no
place to crash...
TER Lajes, Azores
Emergency landing. The good
news: You’ve found a tiny island
with a useable airstrip. The very
bad news: Your engines are down.
You’re coming down fast, but
some well-timed maneuvering will
slow you somewhat. Once you hit
the tarmac, you’ll need to brake
extra hard to avoid disaster. Your
mouth is dry. Time to get to work.
MAD Madrid–Barajas
Ninety minutes ago the
Madrid control tower held you
back due to an emergency
on the runway. You’ve been
slowly circling downward. But
there’s an emergency up here,
too: You’re running low on
fuel. You’ve finally got the go.
There’s no time to lose!!
KBP Boryspil
You’re cruising in towards Kiev.
It would be beautiful if it wasn’t
for all the noise. Your instruments
show no issues, but something
has come loose near the cockpit,
making a loud buzzing and
whistling noise that’s impossible
to speak over. You’ll have some
maneuvering to do as well. You’re
already looking forward to your
hotel room.
