If you have not booked a flight head over to https://calscream.com/ to book a flight. Remember, some flights enter you for a chance to win a prize!

===========================================
The event is just a day away but I wanted to make sure pilots are aware, Sacramento International (KSMF) has just changed its runway numbers from 34/16 to 35/17.

We have an update to the payware BluePrint Simulations scenery that will update these runways (FSX/ P3Dv1-v4), and we also have an update to a freeware scenery that we previously updated as well (FSX/ P3Dv1-4 by Mike Funk).

If you're flying to or from KSMF I suggest getting one of these options as they both have updated runways, terminal, and taxiway layout that all differs significantly from the default P3D/FSX offering. We also offer links to other freeware and pay options for many airports in ZOA airspace.

Just wanted to say thanks to all for an amazing event yesterday; the controllers were spot on (and the chap handling Ground in KSFO was doing a great job under immense pressure :-) )

Is there anyway to sign up for notification of future Calscream events (once you've all recovered from this one  :) )?


Thanks again,
Gez

CalScream takes place in May every year. There's not a formal notification. Just keep a lookout on the VATUSA events calendar. Or, check https://calscream.com.

Actually on the very website you refer to, only six of the nineteen(!!) dates listed were in May... ;-)

But if the intent is to hold them in May every year going forward, that's good news.  It was indeed a fantastic event!
Cheers,

Since 2014 it's been in May 5 out of 7 times. The other two times it was in April and June. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
The better statement then is we usually plan for spring or early summer every year.

Anticipate for it to come around next spring as well.

I'm glad you enjoyed!
