Throw on your warmest socks, crank up the heat, and don't forget to pack your shovel! Come join us as we staff Minneapolis to the gills on January 18th. From 6:00 PM CST until we can't take it anymore, enjoy full staffing and realistic winter operations at KMSP. Bring in IFR or VFR traffic - makes no difference to us! If bad weather is in the forecast, expect delays for deicing, snow removal, and missed approaches - hope you brought enough fuel!

As always in anticipation of a large event, we ask that pilots ensure that they have up-to-date scenery for KMSP, including runway 17/35. AFCADs for FS2004 and FSX is available from various flight sim add-on websites. FSX users and those wishing to add accurate KMSP terminals and ramps can download William Morgan's FRF KMSP Scenery or install BluePrint Simulations' KMSP scenery.

Bookings are now open! Please book your flight here: Deep Freeze 2020 Bookings

We recommend that all pilots review our comprehensive Event Briefing to help prepare flights in or out of KMSP. Clear skies, and we'll see you on the 18th!
