… dreamed of ATC all day long?
… wished to have controllers guiding you on early morning approaches while the sun is rising?
… wanted to fly a four leg rotation with guaranteed service on your departure and arrival?
… hoped to get a whole day of ATC as real as it gets?
We make it happen! Zurich Airport will be open on May 13th during the real operating hours!
Be the first one to touch down as IFR-traffic on runway 34 at 0600 local time. If you are early, expect to join the holding with the other early morning inbounds until we are allowed to let you approach the airport. A picture seen at Zurich every morning …
As VFR traffic, explore the beautiful mountaineous Swiss landscape just minutes south of Zurich. Fly to Samedan for a delicious nut cake at the highest airliner airport in Europe and enjoy the breathtaking view of the alps. When returning, be prepared to get close to the big birds! Zurich still handles both, VFR and IFR traffic, unlike other European majors.
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.
Be part of the experience and let Zurich come to life for a whole day on July 21st from 0400 to 2130z!
What is more breathtaking than a flight over the Alps?
Not a long time ago, the swiss pilot Oskar Bider did the until then unbelievable flight! In 1913 he was the first pilot who ever crossed the Alps in an airplane. Today we can experience this adventure quite comfortable in cozy cabins, performed by well-trained crews of pilots and ATC. But a flight above the Alps is still spectacular! And when the day ends, after shutdown, with an Aperol Sprizz at the french Riviera or in a bavarian „Biergarten“ the pilot can be sure: everything went perfect!
At 23rd of June we invite you to experience the Spirit of the Alps at your simulator. From 1800- 2100z we will staff Nice and Munich for you completely!
