Events / [06JAN17 2359Z] Lake Express Frozen Night Ops (MKE & GRR)
« on: December 15, 2016, 08:32:13 PM »


The Lake Express is one of two ferry services to cross Lake Michigan (the other the S.S. Badger). Traveling from Milwaukee to Muskegon, getting from the largest city in Wisconsin to the second largest city in Michigan, Grand Rapids, the Lake Express saves plenty of drive time. However, service does not run in winter months. In our version of Friday Night Ops, we are featuring these two cities for your flying pleasure. Fly to one, fly to both, it's up to you.

We look forward to seeing you at Frozen Night Ops, hosted by Chicago ZAU ARTCC on January 6th from 2359-0400Z (6:00pm to 10:00pm Central)

Staffing starts at 0100z (7pm Central) and goes until 0400z or later. We hope you have a safe journey home!
