[Every Tuesday, 18-20z] Zurich Night

[Hisham Omar]

A lovely evening to all,


As we prepare for our landmark and hopefully popular Geneva Real Operating Hours this coming 19th of November, the Administration Department has been eager to find planning methods reflecting sustainable and conscientious deployment of our dedicated team of ATCOS.

In this intention, given the long and busy event shortly prior, we have made the decision to pre-emptively cancel our Zurich Night on the 21st of November. This cancellation, paired with the slightly decreased pace of events during the week in question, will hopefully allow for a period of adequate rest and much needed relief for our hard-working controllers and department members. The Zurich Night planned for the 28th of November will be maintained, and so too the remaining events leading up to the winter break.

We hope our controllers will enjoy this resting period and hope to see you all this Tuesday!

To our pilots and controllers,


Hoping this finds you well, we would like to announce that the "Zurich Night" initially slated for the 16th of April 2024 has been pre-emptively cancelled. This decision has been made in the strategic interest of allowing for some recuperation from the vACC Weekend event 2 days prior and to facilitate the preparation of ATCOs controlling during that Saturday's "Cross The Pond".

As has been announced on the Cross The Pond planning thread, this "Zurich Night" will be replaced by a briefing session that will allow for the participating ATCOs to convene, enjoy a brief presentation and ask any potential inquiries concerning the latter event. The "Zurich Night" on the 23rd of April will be maintained, so too will all following editions until the end of June unless otherwise advised.

We thank you in advance for your understanding.


Kindest regards,

vACC Switzerland Administration Department.

April?

Apologies, it seems 2024 is passing by faster than expected. Thanks for spotting it, post has been corrected!

A lovely evening to all,


In preparation for our Geneva Real Operating Hours, 2024 edition, we have maintained our priority for sustainable staffing, event viability and adequate recuperation from what is bound to be a busy and packed day of controlling.

As such and keeping these objectives in mind, we have made the decision to pre-emptively cancel our Zurich Night on the 12th of November. This cancellation will allow for a moderation of the pace of events and give time to our regular ATCOs in the interests of rest and renewal of their controlling capacity. The Zurich Night planned for the 19th of November will be maintained, as will the remaining editions prior to the winter break.

We hope our controllers will enjoy this resting period and hope to see you all this tomorrow!

A lovely morning to all,


Planning for our much anticipated 2025 vACC Weekend is well under way, not only relative the event itself but also our surrounding plans in-keeping with our principles of sustainable event planning, the avoidance ATCO saturation and suitable recuperation from large and involved events.

In order to respond to these targets and curate a suitable event calendar for all, we have made the decision to pre-emptively cancel our Zurich Night on the 8th of April. This decision, in line with our objectives, will hopefully allow for a recovery from a busy and packed weekend of controlling whilst empowering better staffing for our future engagements. The Zurich Night planned for the 15th of April will be maintained, as will the remaining editions prior to the summer break.

We wish everyone a pleasant spring!
