Please join the OAKLAND ARTCC in hosting a TRACON TUESDAY event. Our controllers are keen as mustard to open all the NorCAL sectors as we coordinate aircraft through the northern Californian airspace. We will plan to have NorCAL online for you, with the support of the surrounding towers (Class D).  We will be online for a few hours feel free to bring some GA traffic or some scheduled airline flights. Choose between small hops between the featured fields or conduct a Bay Tour with a Bravo airspace transition.

The choice is yours. Come hang with us and hope to see as many of you as we can!

Staffing will commence from 1800 PDT and go to 2100 PDT. (0100z-0400z).

Featured Towered Fields:
CLASS D
LVK – Livermore
SQL – San Carlos
HWD – Hayward Executive
SJC - San Jose

Depending on numbers, we may chose to add more towers although we didn't last time.

I seriously hope banners like this do not become the norm.

I like it

So everyone join us in the West Coast for an amazing evening!

Come join Oakland ARTCC as we put the spotlight on KSMF, feel free to bring the IFR/VFR traffic as we staff up NorCal for your friday night fun! We will have the focus on SMF, but will endeavour to have some more airports staffed up for your pleasure, as well as SFO (of course). A fun short flight from SFO-SMF, is always a fun idea!

We will begin staffing around 5pm PST and go till around 9pm PST

Hope to see you all there !
