Expert ATC Schedule • 12-18 March 2018

Tyler_Shelton · March 11, 2018, 5:24pm

Are you wondering where the Expert Server controllers will be each day of the week? Check out their schedule below!

Pilots and controllers are strongly encouraged to explore and open new airports, avoiding the classic Class Bravos. Again… open something new!!!

NOTE: Region changes will still occur at 0600Z beginning this week to better align with the US/EU natural activity break.

IFATC Schedule (17).png6460×3480 2.52 MB

Region changes will occur around 0600Z as the previous region’s activity comes to an end.

Do you want to be a part of this amazing ATC effort? Join here!

I find the colors on the map a little confusing (Tuesday, Thursday, Saturday, Wednesday), but apart from that it looks like an absolute hell of a schedule! The variety is amazing. Looking forward to Wednesday and Thrusday!

DylanIE · March 11, 2018, 6:53pm

Didnt control this week at all due to some internet problems but cant wait to get back at it again.
Wednesday should be nice as well as Saturday and Sunday provided no one opens EDDF, EHAM, KDTW and KORD.

Kamil_Chmielewski · March 11, 2018, 7:14pm

Dear Polish pilots, expect EPWA Ground & Tower on Saturday. :)
