“OneSky4” Event – May 2005
This event was organized by VATSIM EUROPE, in collaboration with other divisions of VATSIM, on 7 May 2005. Onesky 4, the 4th on line event had as an objective to cover for certain hours all possible ATC positions.
The Hellenic department, HvACC, taking advantage of this occasion, began a parallel marathon ATC event, beginning almost one day before, and ending the same hour that Onesky 4 finished.
This entire effort and idea became finally a unique reality! Thus the Greek FIR “opened its doors”, Friday 6 May at 18:00LT, and remained online even after the official end time of OneSky4 , roughly until 03:00LT of Sunday 8 May 2005!
“Triangle” Fly-in – April 2005
On April 15, 2005 HvACC organized its Triangle Fly-In event to celebrate the arrival of two new interface programs for online flying in VATSIM, Squawkbox 3 and FSInn.
