  1. This ANZAC Day, in collaboration with VATNZ, we invite you to fly across the Tasman as we remember those who shall not grow old, as we who are left grow old. On April 25th, fly between Auckland Airport (NZAA) and Sydney Kingsford Smith (YSSY), as we staff the ditch for 7 hours (0200-0900z), bringing our two great nations together! Routes: VATPAC and VATNZ recommend the following routes when flying between Auckland and Sydney. YSSY -> NZAA: DCT TESAT L521 LUNBI DCT AA NZAA -> YSSY: DCT MADEP N774 TESAT DCT Flying in Oceanic Airspace: Normal ATC throughout Australia (Brisbane Centre, Melbourne Centre, Sydney Approach, etc.) rely on radar to determine where an aircraft is in the air. Over the ocean, there is no radar. This non-radar airspace is controlled by oceanic ATC. All Oceanic Controlled Airspace in Australia is controlled from Brisbane, so all oceanic controllers in Australia are called "Brisbane Radio". One of the significant differences between radar and Oceanic flying is the need for position reports. Position reports are how ATC can determine where you are. Position reports contain estimates for waypoints, speeds, altitudes and any other information. Because there is no radar over the ocean, ATC relies on time-based separation and reports from the pilots. ATC has no way of determining where you are unless you specifically tell them. The standard format is: Current/Previous waypoint name and the time which you crossed that point. Current flight level. Mach number if assigned by ATC. Your next waypoint and estimate for that point. The waypoint after that. For example: "Qantas 123 is position PLUGA at time 0523, flight level 380, estimating VELKU at 0750, SASRO next." You can use the Oceanic Reporting Tool to help construct oceanic position reports. Find more information here. ATC: ATC within VATPAC airspace for this event will be rostered according to the positions nominated below. Applications are now open, click here to apply.

    In collaboration with Singapore VACC, Indonesia VACC, and VATSEA; VATPAC is delighted to invite you to the Perth -> Singapore Shuttle! Fly from Perth Airport to Singapore Changi Airport with full ATC from 0800z-1600z on the 17th of April 2021! What is a 'Shuttle' Event? A shuttle event is where we invite pilots and controllers to fly from the defined departure airport, to the defined arrival airport with the expectation of full ATC along the way! We invite you to depart from Perth Airport (YPPH) between 0800Z-1000z on the 17th of April 2021, inbound to Singapore Changi Airport (WSSS), as we attempt to test out our talented controlling team! Below you will find the recommended route between the two airfields, as well as information for your departure and arrival! Route: VATPAC, VATSEA, Indonesia VACC and Singapore VACC recommend the following route when flying between Perth and Singapore. YPPH -> WSSS: ROUTE: PH AVNEX N752 PLB G579 REPOV SIN DEPARTURE: AVNEX3 (ALL RUNWAYS) ARRIVAL: Expect REPOV1A or REPOV1B Remember the departure slot for YPPH is between 0800z- 1000z! Departure From Perth: Pilots departing from Perth Airport (YPPH), can expect to depart from either RWY 03 or RWY 21, depending on wind direction and traffic levels. Click here to find all charts for YPPH. Arrival Into Singapore: Upon Arrival into Singapore Changi Airport (WSSS), pilots can expect either the REPOV1A or REPOV1B followed by a choice of RNAV, VOR, ILS, or Visual approach (Weather Permitting) into either Runways 02(L/C) or 20R. ATC will assign the approach type nominated in the ATIS, but you may request a different approach type if you are up for the challenge. We ask that you are familiar with the approach type you select. If you are unfamiliar with these operations you can request vectors from the Approach controller to ensure you capture the localiser. Click here to find all charts for WSSS. Flying in Oceanic Airspace: Normal ATC throughout Australia (Brisbane Centre, Melbourne Centre, Sydney Approach, etc.) rely on radar to determine where an aircraft is in the air. Over the ocean, there is no radar. This non-radar airspace is controlled by oceanic ATC. All Oceanic Controlled Airspace in Australia is controlled from Brisbane, so all oceanic controllers in Australia are called "Brisbane Radio", there is no "Melbourne Radio", so ML-IND_FSS is called "Brisbane Radio".

Float around the discord if you are available to control and we may even open some Non-Standard ENR & TMA Splits for you all to enjoy! Routes: Here are the recommended routes for you to fly during this event! Remember, you are more than welcome to fly to any airport in between! PILOTS: This event takes place at a procedural aerodrome (YBAS); this means larger separation standards than usual... Please bring some extra holding fuel! YPAD - YBAS: AD A585 HAWKY J58 WHA J251 AS YBAS - YPAD: AS J251 WHA H84 AD ATC: Prefer to control during this event? Positions are often scarce, so be sure to float around on the discord to check when positions become available!

    We're back and proud to announce the next event for the Light Up series, Light up South Australia! It is time to pull out those regional aircraft or commercial airliners and explore the wine country of Australia as we attempt to provide the most realistic ATC services for you as you travel to stunning destinations that South Australia has to offer. Travel between Adelaide (YPAD), Parafield (YPPF), Port Augusta (YPAG), Port Lincoln (YPLC), Mount Gambier (YMTG) Ceduna (YCDU) and Olympic Dam (YOLD) plus many more with the expectation of full services from 0400z - 0800z. What is Light Up South Australia? This event revolves around one of our older events (Regionals and Twins) with the idea being to provide ATC services to more regional locations around the country. Our regional towns don’t get the love like the big cities do, so let's change that! Travel to those often-forgotten destinations and provide controllers and pilots alike a different challenge. A chance to fly into an unfamiliar location and try an approach other than the usual ILS approach. During this event, you will receive an Outside Control Airspace Service at a majority of our airfields from the overlying ENR Controller. Pilots can expect the following service types depending on the class of airspace. We encourage you to use Adelaide's secondary airport Parafield (YPPF) - Australia's third busiest airport by ground movements for use with shorter routes. Parafield is the home of many small aircraft which fly heaps of VFR and IFR routes around the south as well as housing operational historic aircraft! Suggested Major Routes: South Australia has so much to offer and explore! Whether your flight is high or low, fast or slow, there are plenty of routes to fly. Find some of our suggested routes below, bearing in mind that Pilots are more than welcome to fly other routes from other destinations! Charts for all airports can be found here. Adelaide Based Routes: YPAD-YCDU: DCT HAWKY A585 ABTOD DCT YPAD-YOLD: DCT HOLIT W238 AVPAS DCT Parafield Based Routes: YPPF-YMTG: DCT ALBUT DCT YPPF-YPAG: DCT DOLVU PIREM DCT Port Lincoln Based Routes: YPLC-YPPF: DCT PILBY V707 RIKAB N640 AD DCT YPLC-YPAG: DCT PILBY V707 RIKAB HAWKY J58 WHA DCT ATC: ATC for this event will be rostered according to the positions nominated below.

    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 0700z and peak between 0800-1000z. Routes: We recommend the following routes between Melbourne, Canberra and Sydney.

After the controller roster is released on Saturday evening, no controllers will be added to the roster. Positions that do not have a nominated controller (i.e. no controller assigned on the position) will remain free for all controllers available on the day to control. *Non-Standard positions* will be available for opening depending on traffic levels. They may only be opened once all of the rostered positions are filled. Please see a member of the Board of Directors, or a C3 rated controller to be granted permission to open a non-standard position.

    VATPAC invites you back to another rendition of 'City Pair!' Whether you like to do a short two hour jet hop, or a scenic cruise, this event will cater for your needs! Provide passengers with the opportunity to jump between some of North's hidden jewels! Fly to and from Darwin International Airport (YPDN) & Cairns International Airport (YBCS ) between 0400z-0800z with the expectation of full ATC services for your flights. Hurdle your way between the two cities with passengers or cargo! Event Details: In the last City Pair event, ATC Services were provided between two aerodromes to fly in one direction. This time we are respinning the tables and flying either direction, providing pilots with the opportunity to receive full ATC services whilst they journey away from the big cities, flying between either of the nominated locations and exploring our amazing country! Try your hand at unique and challenging arrival and departure procedures, or settle for something easier - the choice is yours! Controllers also get the opportunity to control new and exciting locations with larger levels of traffic, and create a sequence inbound to the arrival aerodrome not normally seen! Routes: VATPAC recommends the following routes from the departure aerodromes. Pilots are still welcome to fly other routes inbound from elsewhere if they so wish!!!

  19. G'day Chris! It was my absolute pleasure controlling you and many others that night, thank you for your patience and understanding. At the end of the day, I am very glad that we were able to get everyone who genuinely wanted to fly airborne safely. Hope to see you all in the skies again soon and thank you for the feedback! - Luke
