Live up America FNO!

[Matthew Bartels]

VATUSA is kicking off our participation at FlightSimExpo 2018 with a bang!

The always popular Light Up America event returns as a Live FNO from 2300z - 0400z on June 8th.

We are going to staff as many positions as we can live from the show floor in Las Vegas and want everyone who can't make it to Vegas to join us virtually for one insane night of controlling and flying. Our goal, get all 22 Centers online as well as as many TRACONs and Towers as we can.

All who are going to FlightSimExpo are welcome to attend live and should register here -> https://goo.gl/S6VNCn

This will be a FNO for the history books! See you in Vegas!

Great event tonight everyone.

Was really nice to see everyone represented in our little community.

I look forward to another one next year!

I received an email from our Regional Director on behalf of the Region and the VATSIM Board of Governors congratulating me on such a great event and how impressed they were.  In my response. I thanked our Regional Director but informed him that I could not take credit for the success of the event.  The credit should go to Matt Bartels who planned the event and of course to all of our ARTCC's.  Thank You for participating and staffing up for this event.  All I can do at this point is sit back with a big grin and cheer for each ARTCC.  Thanking each ARTCC and their members for allowing me some bragging rights.  I truly hope that everybody had a good time and enjoyed themselves.

I should also mention our members the pilots who flew in the event.

It would be awesome to see us do this on a quarterly or bi-annual basis.

Looks like travel made me miss something truly spectacular. Hopefully next year, and as the previous commenter stated, it would be awesome to do this on a quarterly basis.
