Hello,
DP003 Revision 5 has been posted on the Policies and Downloads page and is now in effect. The major changes are as follows:
- FNO bidding has returned to two bidding cycles per year (JAN-JUNE & JULY-DEC)
- FNO policies and procedures have changed to allow single-field FNOs and single-ARTCC FNOs with restrictions. There will be a limit of eight single-field FNOs per bidding cycle.
- 7210.35C has been cancelled. Command Center policy has been moved to DP003 5.8 with slight modifications
- A small exception to the "double booking" rule has been added, which allows ARTCCs to book on top of multi-day events without permission from VATUSA5
- ACE Team usage by facilities has been clarified, and the chapter has been reformatted
You can access the new policy as an attachment on this forum post or at
