Overview:

Every Saturday (from 3pm to 9pm Pacific, 6pm to midnight Eastern) we'll have people online!

This week we'll be doing a Seattle to Portland run. Pilots are encouraged to fly between these airport pairs. Controllers will utilize both legacy and new ATC software.

Flight Plan:

Fill up the SEA-PDX corridor by flying between the two busiest airports within ZSE! Fly in both directions with ATC service at both airports, and enroute.

ATC Information:

• Pilots are expected to comply with normal procedures.
• Neither VFR nor IFR practice approaches disrupt the flow of other arriving and departing IFR or VFR aircraft (FAA JO 7110.65 para 4-8-11)
• Preferred routes are highly recommended. However we can still clear you on a different, valid, route.
• Advise ATC if unable to comply with any clearance or instruction. 
• We're all here to learn and have fun. Don't be afraid to request clarification or additional help from ATC.
