Title: [May 21, 2200z-0200z] Cleveland Real Ops
Post by: Amin Abrahem on April 11, 2017, 10:15:05 AM: (http://i.imgur.com/DXhARta.png)

Join Cleveland ARTCC as we present Cleveland Real Ops, at 2200z-0200z (1800-2200 EDT) May 21st 2017, featuring Cleveland-Hopkins International (KCLE).

CLE opened in 1925 as the first municipal airport in the country. Today, almost 100 years afterwards, it is the 45th busiest airport in the nation serving 9 million passengers annually. Now itâ€™s time to make it that busy on the VATSIM network also; Enjoy four hours of ATC as we staff up Cleveland-Hopkins Airport, to make it as real as possible!

The idea is to simulate real-world operations. I was trying to create bookings with real-world flights, but let's just say it didn't end up exactly as I wanted. Hope everyone who is going to fly in will enjoy it anyways. ::)

Got it. I'm not sure we'll ever see quite enough traffic for real "real ops," and most folks fly something resembling a real-world flight anyhow.

Now perhaps if we could let VFR aircraft just do their thing without controllers blowing a gasket, we could start getting even closer ;D
