Have you ever....

 

...dreamed of ATC all day long?

...wished to have controllers guiding you on early morning approaches while the sun is rising?

...wanted to fly a four leg rotation with guaranteed service on your departure and arrival?

...hoped to get a whole day of ATC as real as it gets?

We make it happen! Zurich Airport will be open on July 21st during the real operating hours!

 

Be the first one to touch down as IFR-traffic on runway 34 at 0605 local time. Long haul inbounds within the first hour will enjoy iStream tactical steering to guarantee an optimum approach sequence. If early, join the holding until we are allowed to let you approach the airport.

 

As VFR traffic, explore the beautiful mountaineous Swiss landscape just minutes south of Zurich. Fly to Samedan for a delicious nut cake at the highest airliner airport in Europe and enjoy the breathtaking view of the alps. When returning, be prepared to get close to the big birds! Zurich still handles both, VFR and IFR traffic, unlike other European majors.

 

Zurich is a unique airport with a lot of operational restrictions due to noise abatement and its challenging layout. We know it by heart and love this airport with all its rough edges.

 

Be part of the experience and let Zurich come to life for a whole day on July 21st from 0400 to 2130z!

The night ban is closing in and soon, Zurich airport will be again a more quiet place. We hope, you have enjoyed our service today. We saw some pilots repeatedly today. That must have been an intensive day for the flight crews of VATSIM.

By the end of the event, we will count over 450 movements. A significant increase compared to the year before. And - more than 50% of the movements completed in real life. And those movements are really at its maximum these days.

Credits go to all pilots actively participating and flying in and out of Zurich. THANK YOU for making this event a successful one together! And let's not forget the ATC crew, of course.

If you have any feedback for us, don't hesitate to comment here or provide your impressions directly to our controllers and/or the ATC-TD via http://fb.vacc.ch.

 

Enjoy the holiday season and visit us again!
