Events / Trick or OAK
« on: June 12, 2023, 01:36:42 AM »
Calling all pilots and controllers alike, join us on this evening on a scary holloween night. We invite you to fly all planes big and small, but watch out you might be tricked and not land at all. File your flight to OAK if you wish, but be warned you may get vectored off to another airport at the controllers' bliss. We encourage you to fly your 73 and 74 alike, as O27, which has a 3000 foot runway that might bring a haunted end to your night. Enjoy this fun evening that is sure to fright, hopefully your plane survives this holloween night.
