Please join us for...

Afterhours Closed Traffic on PE

Saturday, December 24th
14:00 UTC - 16:00ish UTC


This weekend we’ll gather and get started with some laps in the pattern at KUDD (Bermuda Dunes) then make are way up to KTNP (Twenty-nine Palms).
After that, it’s a short hop over to L80 (Roy Williams – dont’ forget your mouse ears kids!) before finally heading west to see our controller friends at the lovely KPSP (Palm Springs) where we'll wrap up with our post-flight debrief.

It’s always a good time as the calls are frequent, the pattern is tight, and the traffic is real 8-)

To get an idea of just how much fun we have together...

*Please send me a PM if you know you're coming, otherwise, feel free to chop and drop in :)

**For those who connect at 14:00 UTC, please tune to 123.45 for the brief**

***For the sake of practicality, real weather is NOT taken into account when choosing airfields for ACT***

See you in the skies

This is a wonderful way to get comfortable with radio work and there are no prerequisites per se. If you can join us early for the brief, we go over some of the best practices and I am certain that you will enjoy the experience.

Here is a recording of last Saturday that will give a good idea of what goes on :D

I gave this a first try last Saturday - it was enjoyable and instructive. I had an "oops" moment (or two) ;) but it served to reinforce good habits, and show me things I need to work on. Plus, it's a good group ....join in!
