Live from the beautiful city of Dallas in the great state of Texas comes Summer Sizzle 2016! Join the ZFW ARTCC for our annual live event this year featuring Dallas-Fort Worth International Airport (KDFW), Dallas Love Airport (KDAL), and last but certainly not least the charming Will Rogers World Airport (KOKC) in lovely Oklahoma City, Oklahoma. Bring your IFR, VFR, or even military traffic and enjoy a large ATC presence at all featured airports. Most of our controllers will be controlling live from DFW, because at ZFW we live for live events!

Those are some sweet shots.  I agree, it was a great event.  I hope the live gathering was awesome -- it's great to get together and control as a team!
