Alps to the Arabian Skies

Times

Description

Alps to the Arabian Skies - join us on Saturday, October 17th, for a special one-way event connecting Geneva (LSGG) with Dubai International (OMDB)!

Leave the picturesque shores of Lake Geneva behind and set course for the Arabian Peninsula. From the snow-capped peaks of the Swiss Alps to the impressive skyline of Dubai, enjoy a journey across continents, landscapes, and airspaces, with ATC coverage along the way.

Departures from Geneva are scheduled between 10:00z and 12:00z, with arrivals in Dubai between 15:30z and 18:00z.

Whether you’re flying a heavy widebody or something a little smaller, get your flight plans ready, fuel up, and join us for an exciting journey from the heart of Europe to the Arabian skies! Just remember, while Dubai might be home to the A380, Geneva isn’t quite ready to welcome the giant of the skies – so leave your Superjumbos in the hangar for this one!

Zurich Night

Times

Description

Welcome to the Zurich Night, the weekly onlineday of Switzerlands major airport! Every Tuesday from 18:00z to 20:00z, expect full staffing, professional and friendly ATC service and plenty of traffic.

Enjoy one of total 4 IFR approaches or get yourself a spot as a small VFR aircraft between the big birds. VFR flights are still performed regularly despite the airport's size. This makes flying VFR to/from Zurich extremely interesting, but it's also a huge challenge which requires careful preparation. A lot of small airfields in the vicinity offer numerous possibilities for short VFR hops.

Zurich is a unique airport with a lot of operational restrictions due to noise abatement and its challenging layout. We know it by heart and love this airport with all its rough edges. And we are sure you gonna love it as well!

Almost every Tuesday we will also staff Geneva (LSGG) and Basel (LFSB) for you. Check out the bookings on vacc.ch.

Join our frequencies every Tuesday evening and enjoy!

Geneva – One by One

Times

Description

Looking for the perfect mix of high traffic and a challenging airport? Last Friday night of the month? Put your kids to bed or place them in the right seat and start your engines, as vACC Switzerland hosts a new edition of one of its most popular events at Geneva International Airport (LSGG). Let us prove to you that size is less important than skill; with a single concrete runway, our controllers face the challenge of getting the timing just right in order to clear you to land just seconds after departing traffic’s gear has left the ground. Needless to say, expect late landing clearances.

Waiting at the holding point? Get ready to line up behind landing traffic or perform a rolling takeoff, as there is bound to be traffic on short final waiting for that late call from Tower. 

We are fully staffed and ready to get you in and out safely, one by one. We are up to the challenge, are you? If so, look out for the chain of landing lights on the ILS in Geneva, every last Friday of the month from 19:00z to 21:00z.
