VATSIM-UK and the South East Regional Training Scheme proudly present the winter edition of their bi-annual Real Operations Event.
The SE-RTS Real Operations day will take place on Saturday March 3rd from 0900z to 2330z, allowing for a full days worth of movements from the busiest day in the winter season.
The world's busiest single runway airport London Gatwick (EGKK/LGW) will be fully manned throughout, with most air traffic controllers under one roof in a hotel on the English Riviera. This year's event involves 500 planned movements into and out of London Gatwick, with aircraft from AT72s to Boeing 747s, from small regional carriers like Aurigny Air Services from the Channel Islands to major UK Carriers and other international airlines
To make this event as realistic as possible, we will provide a real world flightplan from each separate flight (Pilots with Oceanic flights, will receive the real world flightplan within 2 hours of the standard departure time) and adhere to the NOTAMs in effect throughout the day and into the evening.
Booking is available now through our website at http://serts.evvivasystems.co.uk. Simply register with the system, then book.
