ZOB's FNO last night was a TREMENDOUSLY fun time!  We were nearly overwhelmed with the volume of traffic. 

Thanks to everyone who flew with us and thanks to all our controllers who went the extra mile when their brains started bleeding toward the end!

I want to note that this was Cleveland's first event in at least a year where ACE Team assistance was not required.  That's a HUGE step for our little ARTCC!

We hope you'll choose to fly ZOB again in the near future and we are always happy to welcome new visiting controllers!

The great folks in Cleveland did a wonderful job!  At least while I was flying in and from my perspective, plenty of traffic, enough controllers, good control of traffic and TMU, holds were managed excellently and realistically, and the ARTCC stayed on well past the published closing time to take good care of the later folks and/or stragglers.  Very nice job, ZOB!
