Events / [02/28/2026] Motown to Midtown Crossfire
« on: November 10, 2025, 09:09:48 AM »


Get ready to fire up your engines for the Motown to Midtown Crossfire! Join the controllers of the Cleveland ARTCC (ZOB) and Atlanta ARTCC (ZTL) for a night of fully staffed skies between two of the nation’s busiest hubs — Detroit Metropolitan (KDTW) and Hartsfield-Jackson Atlanta (KATL).

Whether you’re climbing out of Motown or descending into Midtown, expect seamless handoffs, heavy traffic, and plenty of southern and midwestern hospitality along the way. Both airports will be fully staffed, so file your flight plan, grab your favorite jet, and join us for an evening of nonstop action in the heart of the eastern seaboard!

Courtesy of IniBuilds, we will be giving away copies of KDTW Scenery and the IniBuilds A350. You can enter the giveaway here (must have flown during the event): https://docs.google.com/forms/d/e/1FAIpQLScqH0hGPudwxqkbyebGjvW_fFt4QNB1l2TiMSEqTrW80sanLQ/viewform?usp=header

Events / [12/13/2025] Operation Good Cheer
« on: September 26, 2025, 04:31:47 PM »


This holiday season, the skies over Michigan come alive as the Cleveland ARTCC proudly presents Operation Good Cheer, featuring Oakland County International Airport (PTK).

Pontiac serves as the heart of this annual tradition, where the spirit of giving meets the excitement of aviation when pilots come together to deliver gifts to children and youth in foster care across Michigan. Join us as we fill the skies with holiday cargo, connecting PTK to destinations across Michigan and beyond. Whether you're delivering gifts across Michigan or flying cross-country, you will be welcomed with full ATC coverage and a warm holiday spirit.

Load up the sleigh, check your list twice, and get ready to spread joy across the network.
