Events / Dateline Dash - Westbound 2016
« on: July 05, 2016, 12:45:11 PM »


VATJPN and the Anchorage ARTCC would like to present DATELINE DASH, Westbound 2016. Travel forward in time and cross the international dateline in this unique event. These routes are frequently flown by both cargo and passenger operators to help link Japan and Alaska to the rest of the world. 

Depart from either Anchorage (PANC) or Fairbanks (PAFA) and arrive Tokyo Narita(RJAA) or Tokyo Haneda (RJTT). The Narita airport is located outside of the city of Tokyo and is the primary location for cargo operations. Haneda is in the heart of Tokyo and primarily serves as a convenient airport for passenger operations. The distance covered is roughly 2900 nautical miles, which should equate to a six-hour flight, if utilizing a jet aircraft.

The event begins Saturday November 5th, 2016 at 2300 Zulu. Depart between 2300 and 0100 Zulu and ATC will be provided for the duration of your flight. In local time, this would be 1500 AKST, 1900 EST on Saturday the 5th in the US. These local times are based on daylight savings before the time change occurs, giving you an extra hour of sleep:). For those beginning on the western side of the dateline (Asia), the event begins Sunday the 6th at 0800 JST.

Events / St. Paul Island, Alaska
« on: July 02, 2016, 04:42:08 AM »


Straight from the Deadliest Catch, the Anchorage ARTCC would like to present our St. Paul Island (PASN) event. The island sits in the middle of the Bering Sea and is a major support hub for the fishing industry in the area. Frequently featured on the Discovery Channel sitcom, the port services fishing vessels and is also major fish processing location. The weather is usually nasty, so it should be a good opportunity to practice those ILS skills. Short on time? Include St. George Island(PAPB) in your itinerary, which is just 35NM to the south.

Join us at the St. Paul Island airport for a fun evening on Wednesday September 21st, 2016 from 2345-0300 Zulu (1545 AKDT, 1945 EDT).

Anadyr is a small city that serves as the administrative center for the Chukotka region, Russia. As a port town it is also the closest city of population to it’s eastern neighbor of Alaska. In the last few years Anadyr has seen a revitalization that is slowly transforming the city into a vibrant and cultured destination. No Visa required, so load up on caviar and vodka because customs officials have the day off.

A note about time. The event takes place on Sunday, May 15th from 0100-0600 Zulu. This is because of the time/date change necessary for the pilots and controllers in Russia. DAL Control (Russian) controllers will only be staffed from 0200-0600 Zulu because of the time zone issue.
