Training hold

[mnsalty]

Even post covid or whatever, if you have a cold, you should wear a mask to work

Actually, you should stay home.

I’m just on d sides. We didn’t have the bodies to take up an extra r side for the sector and to be plugged in with me on the cert for two different runs, one on the highs, one on the lows.

Yeah that sucks Sorry. Like I said I got all my d sides for all my sectors from just working one sector on the r side vs having to go through everything. I didn’t even do a recert on my other radar. Who knows maybe the supe messed with the times and apparently I was at all sectors who knows.

Man you trainees sure are getting spicy. Kudos for picking something a tower only CPC wouldn't know anything about.

Isn’t 15 degree difference in departures a non-radar application? It’s been a hot minute.

Solidarity.

sorry. You’re right. I should bitch how the agency is screwing me out of that sweet 25-30 hours of ojti differential I was averaging in the pay periods leading up to covid. I need to be made whole! Bring them back!!!

I'm sorry, but I am not sitting next to my trainee, or whatever when they come back if distancing is still in place. If you can put me at a spare scope fine, your debrief form will be in your box... I don't have to sit next to other controllers now, so why should I have to sit next to a trainee? I always hated sitting next to my trainee when they would cough and shit before, now, forget that nonsense.

My trainees never shit but I definitely wouldn't want to sit next to them if they were

I’ve shit my pants once at every facility. Sometimes you shouldn’t chance a fart. Comes with the territory. Later it makes a funny story. Gotta own it.

It's 15 for radar and I think 45 and some weird time requirement for non radar.

1 minute. So weird

You guys joke but the application of this rule saved me 15 points in non-radar evals and lead me to post on this forum

I wasn’t being facetious, just remember thinking that was a non-radar rule for towers. But hell, I’ve been drinking so who the hell knows. #IPAs

It's weird to me again I'm a tower only CPC. I will probably use that rule the same amount of times you will use SRS in a center.

I'm not joking it's a rule that I'm guessing most tower controllers that have a functioning dbrite will never use.

It’s funny what is non radar in the book. Like vertical separation is a non radar rule. Not a radar rule.

My airspace only goes up to 1700 not much vertical separation going on here.

Weird. I used non radar separation on subsequent departures at several towers I’ve worked at. Just because you have a dbrite doesn’t mean you can’t use non radar rules. Enrich yourself and make yourself better.

What's a dbrite?

I mean, I can see that, but it's a common practice separating the RNAVs with vectors on departure by 15°.

Check your reading comprehension my friend I said most probably wouldn't use it. You know good and well not all towers are the same so just because there's a rules that apply to tower controllers doesn't mean all of us will use them. If you knew anything about me you'd know I pride myself on is every once in a while pulling out the book and just reading to catch up on stuff or learning something new.
