Welcome to “GO WRONG” – When the Unexpected Happens
Friday the 13th has never been so dramatic. At any time during the event, a random pilot may receive a private message from ATC…
“You’ve been selected – will you accept an emergency?” 
If the pilot agrees, they’ll face a realistic emergency scenario that requires immediate action, coordination with ATC, and priority handling. From engine failures to onboard incidents, this isn’t your average flight.
But Here’s the Twist…
When the emergency kicks in, it won’t just affect one flight.
All incoming traffic will be impacted – expect holdings, diversions, and dynamic sequencing as ATC clears the way.
Who Will It Be?
The emergency traffic will be randomly selected from the available pilots. If the chosen pilot declines, another will be selected until someone accepts the challenge.
Expect the unexpected, and prepare for “Controlled” chaos in the skies!
- Scenario-based Emergencies: Engine failure, medical incident, decompression, and more!
- Random Selection: Emergencies initiated via ATC private message.
- Traffic Impact: All aircraft will have to adapt to the scenario.
