VATeir is pleased to announce the details of the 2012 Annual Fly-In which will take place on Saturday 28th July from 10am local till 5pm local. All controllers, pilots, and members of the public are invited to attend this event which will take place at the Bewleys Hotel at Dublin Airport [Room 8].

This is a great opportunity for all VATeir members to meet up for a bit of craic, put a few faces to names, and do a bit of controlling! 

This is also an excellent chance for anyone who would like to come along to see how things are done behind the scopes and meet some of the people behind the Irish VATSIM scene. PC Pilots Ireland will also be demonstrating their pilot simulator at the event, giving members of the public an opportunity to see how virtual controllers and pilots interact with each other on VATSIM.

For VATSIM pilots this is also a great chance to experience Irish ATC at it's best! There will be ATC logged on all over Ireland from 10am onwards so be sure to checkout ServInfo/vroute/VATSpy or even our website(http://www.vateir.com) to see what ATC is online.
