Events / [21NOV19 0200Z-0400z] Tower Thursday ZOA
« on: November 06, 2019, 05:19:19 PM »



Abit lost where to fly on the 21st? Feel free to select either SMF/SAC and surrounding fields. This is an event for our S1/S2 controllers to give them some more exposure to high levels of traffic, so if you are a new pilot or a 40 year veteran im sure you could give these lads a hand.

Details;
Airports - KSMF / KSAC
Time - 6pm PDT - 8pm PDT | 0200z - 0400z
Traffic - Airliners and GA welcome.
Details - Don't forget to pay your landing fees.


// edit; banner updated to vatusa dimensions.

Something that has taken me off guard is the instant reply you get from pilots - i'm used to sitting back taking a sip of coffee or a bite of cake before I get a readback, but since AFV its instant something to rebuild into the skillset.

So had a few people talk to me about the end time - ideally we would like it all wrapped up between 7pm and 8pm PDT but will have a few guys on to help clear the load if required. Hope to see as many of you there, and looking forward to ZAK being open :)

« on: August 28, 2019, 12:35:20 AM »


We thought it was about time, that we joined our brothers off shore and joined forces to create a crossfire like no other, a crossfire that includes a large body of water. Please join us on Saturday for our first event in quite some time with our HCF brothers. So why not take the afternoon off and hang out with the best the west coast has to offer.
Our plan is that we will have staffing for the first 2-3 hours at both SFO/HNL for your departures with Oakland radio coming online to join you in the middle, then the last 2-3 hours for the arrivals at both airports.

Details;
Time: Departures 1PM PDT - 3PM PDT
Arrivals 5PM PDT - 8PM PDT (Staying on as req. for late arrivals).

Airports featured: SFO - San Francisco, HNL - Honolulu

Facilities: ZOA/HCF/ZAK

In keeping with the theme of the region, and during the nice warm weather, we are heating up in Northern California, featuring our two rising airports of our area, Sacramento (SMF) and Reno (RNO).
Join us for a night of… well who knows what might happen. Usual story full coverage. Try something new, try something bold and see what happens. We enjoy the challenge here at ZOA.
Although we do ask you plan your fuel accordingly, cause… well … stuff happens.

As the date draws near, here is our list of airports, we have managed to source a combined total of 42 Controllers for this event ! (I was surprised myself), this plans to be one of our biggest CalScream's yet to date. Out list of airports are as follows:

ZOA - SFO/OAK/SJC/SMF/RNO/MRY (Possible FAT)
ZLA - LAX/LAS/SNA/SAN/LGB/PSP/ONT/SBA
This is a list where we plan to have ATC tower coverage, although we will have both NCT's (Northern California Tracon) and SCT's (Southern California Tracon) online providing wide radar coverage.



We encourage those to use our booking system so that everything runs smoothly - although fear not if you miss your slot you can still login and file your flight plan and we will try to accommodate you as best we can!

Hope to see you all in the virtual skies!

OAKLAND ARTCC PRESENTS our next FNO, STORM THE BAY! Please join our controllers in flying in and out of the San Francisco bay area. Choose from 1 of 3 airports; SFO, OAK and SJC. With these airports to fly from/to, you really do have a choice of aircraft at your disposal if you are either feeling a little heavy or maybe some ultra light work. The bay also offers a variety of approaches to choose from as each airport has their own individual characteristics. (Can even bring a blimp, or so i've been told).

We look forward to having you with us for a night of fun!

Event Details below;

Airports: SFO/OAK/SJC
Date: 01 MAR 2019
Time: 4pm - 8pm PST (0000z - 0400z)
