A full afternoon and evening of events awaits you: first, join the herd rushing into the ZFW Lone Star Stampede; next, explore the VFR specialty event with staffed Cl[Mod - Happy Thoughts] D airports in the ZLA Don Fiveash Memorial Event; and then end your evening with some island hopping at the ZHN Hawaiian Spotlight in Honolulu! Details below: May 12, 2007 First Annual Lone Star Stampede Date: Saturday, May 12, 2007 Time: 19:00-22:00 Sponsored by ZFW ARTCC and American Airlines Virtual. You've heard the saying, "Everything is bigger in Texas"! Dare to find out? The Lone Star Stampede aims to max out all approach lanes into ZFW AARTC airspace. Although ZFW ARTCC will have coverage at all positions for three hours, we'd like pilots to try and meet the targeted "stampede" time. After all, stampedes are a chaotic, fast event with lots of cattle (aircraft in our case). This will definitely be a challenge for participating pilots, and ZFW controllers. May 12, 2007 Don (FH) Fiveash VFR Memorial Fly-In Date: May 12, 2007 Time: 22:30 - 02:00 In honor of a great man (http://forums.vatsim.net/viewtopic.php?t=9669), ZLA is proud to present the 1st Annual Don Fiveash VFR Memorial Fly-In. Don's contribution to VATUSA's Los Angeles ARTCC in the areas of pilot training, controller training, and VFR awareness was monumental. Don is a VATSIM great, and is missed immensely by all who knew him. This event will feature fully-staffed Cl[Mod - Happy Thoughts] Delta airports. While these fields routinely handle all types of traffic, VFR flights are particularly encouraged, between these smaller Southern California airports. Socal TRACON facilities and Los Angeles Center will also be staffed for your flying enjoyment. Visit www.laartcc.org for further event info. May 12, 2007 Hawaiian Spotlight Date: May 12, 2007 Time: 01:00 - Honolulu Intl (PHNL)Cl[Mod - Happy Thoughts] B Is the Spotlight Airport! IFR and VFR across the Hawaiian Islands Welcome.
