Now that we're up and running, I think it might be time for our first event!
The big decision is the timing, and which airports. I'm thinking LAS-SAN for heavy metal, and SMO-MYF for slower aircraft. Sound good, or any other ideas?
The idea is to get lots of aircraft into the same sector (frequency) at the same time.
I'm guessing either a Saturday or a Sunday afternoon or evening.

Re: First event?
Cool! I have been waiting for a "high-traffic" event...Saturday or Sunday sounds great as well.
Re: First event?
Was it this Sunday, Oct 23rd?
I like the idea, if Keith can post the date and time frame few days ahead of time, I would try to attend.

Re: First event?
It would be on a Saturday or a Sunday, no date has been posted yet.
When we hold a 'big event', it will be with more than 24hrs notice, I assure you.

Re: First event?
I'd be interested in such an event. Would it be possible to add a non-towered field to the mix? I'd like to try out non-towered field operations with actual traffic.

I am definitely interested. Sunday evenings are best for me typically.

Re: First event?
That would be interesting and fun. I'll do my best to "play" along if it is a day I can.
Just last night had my first other visible traffic called by the controller and I could see it. The limitations I deal with in FSX right now
