Each session will focus on a specific component of flying within the ATC system; the course outline is listed below (subject to change). At the end of each session, ATC will be staffed in order to allow pilots the opportunity to practice the items discussed. The ground school is entirely optional.

  7. Denver Migration Friday, January 9, 2014 The Denver Migration is now 5 years strong and has always been a major event within United Regional. United Regional started the Migration in 2010, and it has evolved with the airline throughout the years. The point of the Migration is to move the entire company over to Denver for the Colorado Getaway, as well as offer massive amounts of traffic throughout the entire event; especially the first day. Over time, however; the event has become one of the community, while United Regional hosts the event, the pilots are what makes it a success. We urge any pilots who are planning to fly to Denver to join us to create even more traffic for ATC, as well as have fun! If you would like to join United Regional in its 5th anniversary of the Migration, all the information you need can be found below! Below is a list of the current departure airports United Regional has selected, as well as optimal push-back times: KACK - 5:10 KALB - 5:40 KBDL - 5:45 KBOS - 5:20 KPWM - 5:15 All pilots are encouraged to be pushed back and taxiing no later than 6:00pm EST, to allow a smooth flow of traffic in and out of the airports. Preferred Routes: Note: Due to the fact that Denver had STARS for different landing configuration (North/South), the STARS may be changed from what is on this page. If that is the case, the post will be updated to reflect the change.
