Dubai - Runway Flips
VATSIM Emirates vACC invites all pilot to “Dubai – Runway Flips”
On Saturday, 30th September, Dubai International Airport will be fully staffed from ground to top by our excellent ATC controllers starting from 14:00z until 18:00z.
At random times during every hour, runway direction will change. Dubai (OMDB) has 2 runways: 30L/12R and 30R/12L. This brings a challenge for pilots departing and arriving.
Pilots may have slightly higher tailwind component on final approach and landing. Runway change will be in action regardless of the wind direction!
Are you up for the challenge? Mark your calendar and join us for this fun event between 14:00 and 18:00 UTC at Dubai International Airport!
