Kazan and Samara Online Evening

The virtual sky of the Volga region invites you to visit!

Boys and girls!

On Thursday, 17th September, the Samara FIR of the VATRUS Division invites you to the "Kazan & Samara Online Evening" event. We look forward to welcoming you to Kazan (UWKD) and Samara (UWWW), where ATC services will be provided from 17:00 to 20:00 UTC.

Kazan is one of the largest economic, scientific, educational, religious, leisure, cultural, financial, and sports centers in Russia, the capital of the Republic of Tatarstan, and the most populous city in the Volga Federal District. Kazan is the hometown of the Tatar folk poet, literary critic, publicist, public figure, and translator Gabdulla Tukay, after whom Kazan Airport is named.

Samara is a major economic, transport, scientific, educational, and cultural hub, the center of the Volga region and the Samara region, a city of labor and military glory, a city of valor. All Soviet and Russian cosmonauts launched into space on R-7 launch vehicles manufactured by the Kuibyshev (now Samara) company TsSKB-Progress, where a regular visitor was Sergei Pavlovich Korolev, the founder of practical cosmonautics, after whom Samara Kurumoch Airport is named.

Other airports in the Samara FIR will operate under the Samara Control position; lower positions will be connected when possible.

Before your flight, please familiarize yourself with the current charts and aeronautical information for the airport.

Don't miss your chance to face both airports online at the same time.
