Aaron,

 

We didn't pick the date. VATUSA did. Like I said, FNO is back!

You will hear from us shortly on that issue we are waiting on one more ARTCC to confirm something and then we will formally announce the plans.

From my Local ARTCC, Ive heard starting December FNO will be coming back to weekly, but I also heard that VA's might be running it. I guess we will find out soon enough .

If this is in fact true, this is exactly what needed to be done. the decision in the pilot's hands, and the option to have multiple pilots have multiple operations on Friday nights.

 

That wasn't so hard, was it..?

Isnt the whole idea of FNO to have ONE airport not 3 ARTCC's that will be another ATC corridor which no offense wasnt working out to good

 

Or am i not understanding this correctly??

Ryan,

 

It is a different idea, and not one event. You will find out really soon!

You aren't understanding correctly, just wait and see its not another ATC event.

I think the ATC idea needs to become more concentrated... that idea was noble indeed, but with how spread out it was (and still is for future events)... I just don't see it working well. I think we can find some sort of happy medium between two ARTCCs that are neighbors and share airspace - that should be a much better event and still keep some of that realism that pilots and controllers desire (high traffic levels and limited "conga-lines" of traffic).

 

Again - just my observations.

 

 

Although I'm more than thrilled to see a staff change coming for VATUSA (Long overdue in my honest opinion)... I still appreciate the efforts shown with some news ideas by the some of the old staff. I Just don't think it was quite enough to keep us controllers entirely entised with "ATC" - it can be done better in my honest opinion.

 

It is my sincere hope that whoever replaces the previous staff will take more recognition of ARTCC staff/senior controllers and apply the opinions torwards improving the division/network.
