Please join me in welcoming Daniel Hawton as the new Anchorage Air Traffic Manager! Daniel has previously served in many different staff roles on the network, such as VATUSA Data Services Manager, ZDV WM, and most recently the ZAN DATM. In addition to being a Supervisor and Instructor here on the VATSIM network, Daniel brings real-world Alaskan ATC experience with him to ZAN. Daniel is excited to lead the Anchorage ARTCC and is very passionate about creating the best experience possible for all who control and fly in ZAN's airspace. I look forward to watching ZAN grow under his leadership! Congrats Daniel!!
I'd also like to thank Joseph Kerr for all that he has done while leading ZAN. It is because of his leadership that the facility has a strong foundation to build off of and continue growing for years to come! Joe will remain as the HCF ATM, but also plans to be an active controller and member of the ZAN community. Thank you Joe!
