« on: April 18, 2020, 07:09:52 PM »I absolutely CANNOT BELIEVE that ZTL would sell out like this. It's such a massive conflict of interest to take corporate money for event sponsorships. I just don't think we can trust an ARTCC that's this DEEP in the pockets of BIG COLA. What's next, rename the JACCC2 departure the JACCCandCoke2? This is frankly REPREHENSIBLE.
I laughed way too hard at this humor, hahaha

Super neat. I'm going to model it just like the system we have at actual ZAB! Thank you Daniel!

Awesome job Matt! Let's make this a more common occurrence, perhaps a every-other-month style could work? Prizes don't have to be included each time unless that's doable.
Just a thought, wouldn't hurt to try!
Keep up the great volunteerism.

The Classroom (Controller Tips) / Review: "One In One Out Rule" at Class D Airports

Good idea Wes, thanks for the heads up. We might do something similar at ZDV.

The Classroom (Controller Tips) / Review: "One In One Out Rule" at Class D Airports

Something at work confused me. Edited the post to clarify.
Here at the academy in the Enroute domain students practice issuing IFR releases to a Class D nonradar tower. Unsure of the letter of agreement between the center and the tower, but students are taught to effectively use the one in one out rule for IFR operations at this airport.
Likely it's just a letter of agreement thing. Class D towers in general can provide IFR separation utilizing visual separation if standard IFR separation exists prior to and after visual separation is used.
Discussion point for staff members: How restrictive or detailed are your LOAs between your Class D fields and their overlying radar facility? At ZDV I am considering developing a standard procedure for IFR operations at Class D fields to make it consistent.

This is assuming the tower doesn't have a certified radar display, which in my experience, most Class D towers don't have.
Merik: the visual separation mentioned is tower-provided visual separation, and must be approved explicitly between two aircraft by the radar controller, and delegated to the tower.
