All this is true, luckily shit hole facilities like that are being eradicated, either by the old dinosaur fucks there retiring and screwing the tax payers out of an inflated pension from their high three set up by the green book, or by the consolidation process.
The consolidation process might get the old dinosaur fucks out the door and off to the gaining radar facility but I don't think there's been a place yet that got 804'd and subsequently contracted out... or am I wrong about that? Places like COU, MSO, BZN, MFR, LYH and GJT used to have radar facilities and now are contract towers, but I think they got consolidated before the 804 process was the way they did it, am I right? Anyone know the stories there?
