I would like to start off by thanking Derek Vento for all his hard work over the past 8 months as the Training Administrator. His teaching style was admired throughout the VATUSA community and his energy about ATC was contagious. It is sad to see him go, but real world commitments always take priority.
With every departure we usher in a new arrival and, on that note, I would like to introduce Kyle Perry as the new New York ARTCC Training Administrator! Kyle should be no stranger to anyone at New York. He previously served as our Events Coordinator, the LGA Facility Coordinator, and a VATSIM Instructor. Kyle joined VATSIM and the New York ARTCC in late 2008 and has been a member ever since. He attended UND from 2012 and graduated in May 2016 from the CTI Program. He currently holds a PPL, instrument rated, and has about 235 hours.
Join me in congratulating Kyle!
