http://www.worldflight.com.au/booking/schedule14.phpControlling WorldFlight, and cooperating with WorldFlight ControllersReminder that WorldFlight controllers are authorized to control any USA airspace where VATUSA controllers are not present. Most will defer is a VATUSA controller comes online, but are not required to. Best bet for good relations is if a WF controller is online and you'd like to staff, come on as an OBS, identify yourself as a home ARTCC controller, and offer to either relieve the WF controller if they wish, or ask where you can be most useful. The idea here is to stay friendly, keep up good relations, and make it a great experience for everyone.
