Sarajevo'84 Winter Olympics Rush - RE-WINDED [Sat, 16 Feb 2013]
Dear pilots,
After many months of coordination with over 16 vACCs, officials, airport and ATC authorities, total of 51 individuals spread around 18 countries, on Saturday 16th February 06-22z, it is again time for the annual well known and successful Sarajevo \'84 Winter Olympics Rush - RE-WINDED event with a lot of traffic to/from Sarajevo (LQSA) and our many interesting partner airports supporting us during the entire day.
Last year we had 8 partner airports and Sarajevo experienced around 160 movements, meaning 1/4th of the entire 2 weeks Winter Olympics traffic from 1984 and in average around 1 movement every 5th minute, which is a lot, seen in terms of Sarajevo airport\'s practice of having max. 1 movement every 15 mins due to its blind runway configuration and surroundings!
This year due to the success of the last year\'s event, we have almost doubled the number of partner airports, being a total of 14 very interesting partner airports, many of them former Winter Olympics capitals, and altogether worth paying a visit.
The partner airports, starting early from east and ending late in west (due to time zones), will tune on 1h after each other and be online for at least 3 hours fully staffed together with their respective CTRs, so there will during the event be full ATC coverage between Sarajevo and the partner airports you choose to fly to/from!
So why not trying to combine flights to/from Sarajevo with:
06-09z Yekaterinburg (USSS)
07-10z Moscow (UUDD)
08-11z Kiev (UKBB)
09-12z Rostov (URRR)
10-13z Chisinau (LUKK)
11-14z Sármellék (LHSM)
12-15z Sofia (LBSF)
13-16z Podgorica (LYPG)
14-17z Antalya (LTAI)
15-18z Larnaca (LCLK)
16-19z Nurnberg (EDDN)
17-20z Berlin (EDDT)
18-21z Chambéry (LFLB)
19-22z Innsbruck (LOWI)
Beside the partner airports, the 2 feeder airport
