[21JUL17 2300z] ZMP FNO: Northern Migration XII LIVE
« on: June 21, 2017, 02:55:14 PM »


Minneapolis ARTCC proudly presents the 12th LIVE Northern Migration!

With summer in full swing, the snowbirds are returning home to the land of 10,000 lakes - Minnesota. Around this time, VATSIM controllers from across the country convene in Minneapolis for a weekend of Twin Cities VATSIM controlling for the second of two annual real-ops events hosted by Minneapolis ARTCC. Now in its twelfth season, Northern Migration XII provides comprehensive coverage of the ARTCC, from Nebraska to Michigan and everything in-between, for an event featuring Minneapolis-St. Paul International Airport (KMSP).

This year, we are proud to announce a partnership with FlightBeam! We will be giving out 3-5 copies of FlightBeam's magnificent KMSP-HD scenery to pilots who reserve flights using this website and fly their flights within the scheduled departure time.

Be sure to book your flights TODAY at https://migration.minniecenter.org and join us on July 21st starting at 6pm CDT (23z)!

Hey,

Great event. Im not exactly sure what "within scheduled departure time" means when determining whether we are eligble. Is the departure time in our bookings when we should start pushback or when we take off? Also what does within 10 minutes mean? Is that meaning you can start at the earliest 10 minutes before departure or also that you can be late up to 10 minutes?

Thanks and look foward to this event!

All operations at MSP during the event will be eligible to win copies of the scenery.

Where are you seeing "within 10 minutes" language in the briefing?

Ahh this is my fault. Someone said that we have to be within 10 minutes but I do not see that in any documents so I guess he was mistaken. It is all operations that are booked flights correct?

All flights into or out of MSP will have a chance to win prizes. If you booked a flight through the booking system I can guarantee that it won't hurt your chances  ;)

The remark about flying within scheduled departure time was in the first post.

I was not able to fly with my booked callsign as somebody else had taken it, so I put it in the remarks.

Thanks for another great event in Minneapolis!
