And the Oscar goes to................ Mr. Ira Robinson.
Ira has been the TA of NY for a couple of years and and most importantly he's been the Sunday morning coffe guy of ZNY.
A brand new grandpa IRL and an "old big dad" for all ZNYers.
Well deserved.

And with that I'd like to extend my gratitude to all of you. We worked together for more than 2 years and it was a pleasure for me and an honor.
A big thank you to Gary who offered me the job and his support.
A big thank you to Tom, my good VATUSA7 colleague for the good times online and the great help he has been during my VATUSA tenure.
A big thank you to  (ARTCCs listed alphabetically, sorry Mike!)  Kent K. (ZAU), Don D. (ZBW), Alistair M. (ZDC), Gerry I. (ZID), Dhruv K. (ZMP), Nick F. (ZNY), Mike S. (ZOB),  their predecessors and their staff.
A big thank you to the VATUSA Members.

Last but not least a special thank you to the place that introduced me to VATSIM, and that's no other than NY ARTCC.  You guys are a part of my day and a part of my life.

See you all on the scopes!

Please help me to congratulate Mr. Tommy Rogers on his new appointment as the ZOB ATM! It's more of a welcome back since Tommy has served ZOB in different capacities in the past. A big thanks goes to Ryan also, for his contribution in bringing ZOB back to the map.
Congrats!

Please help me to congratulate Mr. Gerry Inks on his new appointment as the ZID ATM! Gerry has some big shoes to fill  and we'll do everything we can to help him.
So a big thanks to Bruce and a big welcome to Gerry.
Congrats!
