Attention all Pilots! ZSE will be hosting a training event to allow some of our students to get some time on the network, an OTS recommendation, or even an OTS! All traffic is welcome, VFR AND IFR. See you there.

Come join VATUSA and VATCAN via Seattle ARTCC and Vancouver FIR in a crossfire! ZSE will be sponsoring the beautiful Portland International Airport (KPDX) and YVR will be sponsoring Vancouver International Airport (CYVR). Whether you pull out the Q400 or bring in a 737 (or any larger aircraft!), the short 1-hour flight in this 3-hour event will give you plenty of time to do a turnaround and return trip. The scenery over the Pacific Northwest is simply amazing and you will be able to enjoy fully staffed ATC as well!

Please check the following Pilot Brief for expected flight altitude and route: https://docs.google.com/document/d/1umdWc1OjiLDbeuH8MBhUu6WWubuLQ9iLt3CJFNBtNdg/edit?usp=sharing

Join us on Oct 25th, 2020 from 1900-2200z out of PDX or YVR. See you all on the scopes!

Join ZSE at the beginning of our favorite time of the year! On December 4, 2020, Seattle ARTCC will be staffing up KSEA, KPDX, and some other airports (TBA in the pilot brief) from 1559-2000 PST (2359-0400Z). Bring our your favorite aircraft in FS2020, or stay in your old, but trusty, XP11 or P3D sim. ZSE is excited to bring you guys another great event.

Join ZSE ARTCC on Wednesday, July 29, 2020, from 1600-2000 PDT (2300-0300z) for a Wednesday night event. In this event, we will have students controlling and mentors above them to help them earn ratings quicker. Our goal here is to provide excellent ATC, while also getting as many new controllers trained as possible.

See you on the scopes!

Support the Museum of Flight in Seattle, Washington by joining us on a Fly-In (or fly-out!) to/from Boeing Field (KBFI) on May 6th, 2020, 12 Noon to 4 PM Pacific.

This event will be in partnership with The Future Leaders Team at the Museum of Flight to raise money for the Museum of Flight in Seattle, WA. All donated funds will be through the GiveBIGWA at https://www.givebigwa.org/mofflyin and the Future Leaders Team will be matching the first $2500 donated.

They will also be hosting a Twitch stream to interview members of VATSIM and watch the fly-in. It can be accessed at https://twitch.tv/mofvfs. (Stream goes live 12:00 Noon Pacific on May 6th, but you can tune in any time and watch as much or as little as you like.)


Why Donate?

Your donation helps out during the time where the Museum of Flight’s normal way of operating is disrupted and its doors are closed. This is a critical moment where every dollar counts. Your donation goes to keeping the collection alive, keeping educational initiatives going, keeping the programs for all ages running and ready so that when we emerge from the crisis, the Museum will be there for us all.

We know that every dollar is precious - and that no decision about where to put those dollars is easy or simple. We are grateful for anything you give.

The Future Leaders Team has set up a $2500 matching pool to support your giving, and while it lasts, we'll match your donation so your generosity goes even further. Donate any time from now through May 6th. You can donate during the livestream, too.

We will be giving away 5 copies of Drzewiecki Design scenery! Tune in to the live stream on twitch on May 6th for a chance to win the raffle.
