Lvl 7 washout here. I washed in the tower at a 7 up/down, so I don't have a CTO or any real quals. Now, I'm in Alaska training in FSS. It's not all that bad, but I'd like to get some insight into the possibility of ERR'ing from here to a low-level tower. I couldn't find the minutes online, and no one at my facility knows much about the process of leaving AK FSS and going to a tower or center. Couple of questions..
1) Did they mention FSS Nest employees (washouts like me who got sent to Alaska)?
2) As a non-CPC FSS employee, should I wait until I CPC to try to ERR?
3) Should I even bother putting in paperwork to anything except for Lvl 4 or 5 towers?
Every tidbit of info helps. Thanks!
If you struggled with the tower portion of a 7 up/down you are going to struggle even more at a VFR Level 4-5 tower. The NCEPT will probably select you for DEN.
