By far our most popular of all the weekly events, on any given Monday you'll find the famous "J-Curve" between Melbourne and Sydney well serviced by both pilots and ATC. Not to be confused with out Spilled Milk Run Monday events held on the last Monday of every month, pilots can expect ATC services as you fly between Melbourne and Sydney, or any destination in between (Canberra, Albury etc). Traffic Levels usually begin to pick up around 0800z and peak between 0900-1030z. Routes: We recommend the following routes between Melbourne, Canberra and Sydney.

Cross the Ditch 19: Summer 2020 It's been a long long year, but on VATSIM there are some things you can still count on. In the first weekend of December pilots from every corner of the globe will descend upon Australia and New Zealand to continue their undaunted quest to Cross the Ditch! Check out the official Cross the Ditch website Apply to provide ATC Book your Flights now! View the Event Schedule Check out the Virtual Airline Leaderboard Grab the recommended add-on scenery for each of the event airports What's it all about? For twenty hours this December, the skies over the Tasman Sea between Australia and New Zealand will be filled with aircraft all on a mission to Cross the Ditch. An example of that typical down-under understatement, this "ditch" is over 1100nm wide. The flight routes all range from three to three-and-a-half hours flight time. Throughout the event, the Oceania region's two divisions – VATNZ and VATPAC – will be providing full ATC coverage, in the Southern Hemisphere's premiere oceanic event. This is a great opportunity to experience Oceanic flying without the need to commit to an eight-hour flight! If you're new to Oceanic Flying, our reporting tool makes taking part a breeze. Event Times This twenty hour event is timed to allow pilots from all over the world to join the fun: UTC: Saturday 5th December 2020 17:00 - Sunday 6th December 2020 13:00 AEDT: Sunday 6th December 2020 04:00 - Monday 7th December 2020 00:00 NZDT: Sunday 6th December 2020 06:00 - Monday 7th December 2020 02:00 Four airports, fully staffed For this season's event, VATNZ and VATPAC are both staffing two airports from 6am to midnight local time. Pilots simply pick one of the airports and then fly to either of the two airports in the other division. The result is eight routes simultaneously crossing the Tasman, with ATC coverage for all of them. This event will be Conga-line free! It isn't possible to complete all eight routes in the one day, but shrewd pilots should be able to complete the Four Airport Challenge by operating a valid Cross the Ditch flight through all four airports during the event. The Four Airports for Cross the Ditch 19 - Summer 2020 are: VATNZ - New Zealand Queenstown (NZQN) Wellington (NZWN) VATPAC - Australia Gold Coast (YBCG) Melbourne (YMML) Calling all Pilots and Controllers Flight plans are available from the Flight Plans section. Book your flights now from the Flight Bookings page. Bookings made on this site help us plan for the event, and will also show up in vroute. Controllers wanting to get in on the action can also apply now at the event's ATC Applications page.

VATPAC invites you to a Real Operations event featuring Perth as the host airport. Fly in or out of Perth to a huge selection of locations the aerodrome services on a daily basis. Whether you prefer a short FIFO run, a run from the Eastern Coast or a long haul trip starting with or ending with full ATC, this event is for you! What is Real Ops? Real Ops Perth is a major event hosted within VATPAC's airspace on the VATSIM Network. This 8-hour event aims to closely replicate and simulate the real schedules of Perth airport. This year we have decided to open and dedicated 8 hours of full time controlling to capture the peak arrivals and departures for Perth, we have based these slot times on a typical weekend schedule. We have provided documentation for this event to assist with the smooth operations of this event. This document will be released to the public in the final few days before the event. How does it work? To simulate Perth's real-world environment, we have carefully laid out slot times for Pilots to book, these slot times are replicated from the real world to the best of our ability. A pilot will need to secure their slot before logging onto the network, if a Pilot decides to logon to the network without a slot they will need to contact Perth Delivery to receive clearance which will be given based on an available slot, if a pilot is inbound from another Airport into Perth you will be accommodated secondary to aircraft who have booked slot times. Event Details: Real Ops Perth is designed to allow pilots and controllers the ability to receive full ATC service as they transition in and out of the west coast’s largest airport. Fly either domestically or internationally as you hurtle your way to/from the airport! The possibilities are endless. Throughout this event, ATC will be tasked at keeping appropriate separations standards whilst pilots move about the TMA and ground joining the arrival and departure streams. The challenge is to keep Perth busy for the entire event! We can only do that with heaps and heaps of pilots! All VATPAC, VATNZ and Visiting Controllers may apply for a position to control at this event, we intend on splitting the 8 hours into 2-3 shifts depending on the traffic load and ATC applications. To apply for ATC please visit the link below. Apply for ATC here! Dependent on the number of ATC Applications will ultimately persuade the number of controller positions that are eventually published and rostered. Positions that are planned to be rostered are below.
