East vs. West. Which side will you choose? Come fly into your favorite Missouri city as ZKC will be fully staffing both Kansas City (KMCI), and St. Louis (KSTL) airports on March 5th, 2021 from 2345Z to 0400Z.

Here are a few reminders to consider prior to flying this event:

*Please look over the pilot briefing provided once it is available.
*Have updated scenery. This can just be an AFCAD.
*PDC's will be issued to all PDC capable aircraft. If you do not receive a PDC, or are not CPDLC capable, please call delivery for your voice clearance. You will most likely need an amended route if you're PDC capable and you didn't get a PDC.
*It is important that on initial contact with the first approach controller and ground controller that you have the current ATIS info.

ZKC looks forward to seeing you!

*In the interest of avoiding lengthy ground delays, ZKC asks that participants limit flights between STL and MCI airports. The purpose of this event is for the airport pair to compete against one another for traffic volume.

It sounds like your saying everyone has to fly either STL-MCI or STL-MCI. This sounds like a disaster in the making.
The last statement says in bold "*In the interest of avoiding lengthy ground delays, ZKC asks that participants limit flights between STL and MCI airports. The purpose of this event is for the airport pair to compete against one another for traffic volume."
It appears they just want to see which airport will receive more traffic.

Thanks,

While T2G was designed for FSX, if you install it and add it to your scenery library using the browse function, it'll still work in P3Dv4. A pilot brief with all these details will be out sometime today.

Not trying to call out the controller, by the way -- he did a phenomenal job under the circumstances, including a bunch of go-arounds at KMCI featuring one who erroneously claimed Tower was on the wrong frequency(??!?!)...
