Tracon is technically terminal... Is this RTF?

 

[MJ]

It’s the TETRA track

It’s the TETRA track

Never heard of this, care to explain MJ?

Edit: NVM just found it.

For other people reading TETRA is ten, eleven, twelve radar approach... Maybe. 10, 11, 12 something

Damn, this is what I want! But everything I find online pretty much points that it only applies to N90 at this point in time? Or did they add some of the other Large TRACONs in?

Edit: Nevermind, I just caught up on the Main OTS Posting and saw it's for N90.

TETRA is for any TRACON 10+. It doesn't necessarily mean you're going to N90, but it probably does. I didn't know they were sending OTS here. No wonder they just recommended me to be an OJTI. I'll have to deny that pronto.

I have this class date. Anyone else? Also anyone knows what’s in store for us OTS? Are we doing RTF, TSEW and TETRA along prior experience and current FAA? Is everything pass/fail?

Found this File online. Looks like we'll be doing those classes starting from New hire.
