November 11th is one of the most importnt days in our national memory. The day of regaining independence after 123 years of partition. The day when Poland returned to the map of the world as a free and sovereign state. It is also the date when we honor the sacrifice and heroism of generations who fought for freedom. The day when we can all proudly say: we are Poles.
In this spirit, Polish VACC invites you to its flagship event - Polish Independence 2025. On Saturday, November 8th, in Warszawa at Chopin Airport, in cooperation with Welcome Airport Services, our controllers will gather in one operations room and from 10:00 to 21:00 UTC will provide full Air Traffic Control coverage across the entire Warsaw FIR.
This event is extraordinary. Traffic levels often exceed real-world operations, while the standard of realism and immersion reaches the highest level. For years, Polish Independence has been a symbol of professionalism in our community and a unique way of honoring Independence Day together with aviation enthusiasts from all over the world.
This is the moment to combine the passion for aviation with the remembrance of history and to celebrate together one of the most significant days in Poland’s history. Join us! Let the skies above Warszawa be filled with traffic and let the white-and-red colors resonate proudly in the virtual airwaves.
