Alan Taylor 825557 Posted February 10, 2010 at 06:09 AM Posted February 10, 2010 at 06:09 AM Any pilots who can help would be appreciated. This Saturday the 13th from 1300Z to about 1700Z, a number of people will be getting a chance to get on Gander OCA for the first time. There will be two training sessions going on at once. While one student is being introduced on the north tracks, another one will be doing the same thing except on the south tracks. Two students will get 2 hours each on the position, and then switch with another student who will take their place and do the same thing for another 2 hours. Because of this, Gander will be staffed for at least 4 hours Saturday morning. If you've ever wanted to do a trans-Atlantic flight with ATC for the entire crossing, this is a perfect time for you! This would also be a good time to practice for Cross the Pond which is quickly approaching! Remember, you can expect mistakes to occur as this is going to be the student's first time manning the position so don't expect perfect controlling that day. Hope to see some of you there!! _________________ Joshua Black, VATCAN20 Director of Gander Oceanic Operations Winnipeg FIR Gander Radio Operator VATCAN1 Director, VATSIM - Canada Division Vancouver,B.C. - YVR VATSIM Supervisor Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
