Title: OTS Tonight
Post by: Harold Rutila on January 30, 2012, 10:09:39 AM

I am sending out a request for some traffic at the Colorado Springs Airport (KCOS) later tonight for the purpose of having an S2 OTS. Ben Gustafson will be staffing Springs Tower for an American Virtual Airlines fly-out. I am particularly seeking some arrivals into the airport as well as VFR pattern work and IFR/VFR practice approaches. The fly-out begins at 0100Z. Thanks!

Thanks to all those who flew into and out of KCOS!

Did he pass?

He sure did! We had 21 aircraft fly in over the course of two hours. Around 4 aircraft were in the pattern for a good 45 minutes plus landing and departing traffic. Ben handled it very, very well.

Thanks to all who saw the request and flew in. I greatly appreciated it.
