Description

**What is Real Ops?** Real Ops is a major event hosted within VATPAC's airspace on the VATSIM Network. This event aims to closely replicate the real schedule of Adelaide Airport. Join us on the 13th of September between 0200z and 1000z to capture the peak arrivals and departures for Adelaide. Flight slot times are based on a typical weekday, offering the most accurate schedule possible. To ensure a smooth operation of this event, we ask that pilots familiarise themselves with the VATPAC Pilot Procedures website. **How does it work:** To simulate Adelaide's real-world environment, we have carefully laid out slot times for pilots to book. These slot times are replicated from the real world as closely as possible. Slots will be available for booking via a link made availble to pilots after the 29th of August. Slots are linked via your CID. If the chosen callsign is taken before you log on, using a different one will not affect your slot. A pilot will need to secure their slot before logging onto the network. If a pilot decides to log on to the network without a slot, they will need to contact Adelaide Delivery to receive clearance, which will be granted based on an available slot. If a pilot is inbound from another airport into Adelaide, they will be accommodated as best as possible.
