This Saturday (28th June, 2008), IVAO will be hosting their Lisbon Airport Flight Operations Event.

The Event

The “Real Flight event” is designed to reproduce the real operations of a major airport around the world. In this case we will be reproducing the real operations of Lisbon Airport (Portela, LPPT) using “MS Flight Simulator”. The flights are scheduled using a real timetable of Lisbon Airport adapted to IVAO’s rules and operations.

How to participate

If you still don’t have an IVAO ID you can register and get one for free HERE.After that you should use the “Open slots” page in the event website in order to check the free slots to choose from, and choose one of those flights. At last but not least turn on the Flight Simulator , connect IvAp and let’s fly. ATC users should use the IVAO schedule system in order to reserve a position for this event.

How does this event works ?

All pilots are allowed to choose a maximum of 2 flights, (1) one departure and (1) one arrival. At the begining the pilots should take look at the “Open Slots” page and choose the flights that he want’s. The “Event Schedule” page is to check the slots already reserved.
