Training hold

[AB19]

Maybe there will be a emergency Telcon this afternoon and NATCA and the FAA will collaboratively decide to pause training nationwide as a result of it.

Fuck I read this as there will be and thought I was never getting certified downstairs, was about to say fuck it

Our management said they'll only allow vaccinations in coordination with our RDOs, because you know the staffing is the most important thing during a pandemic...

Looks like all facilities are returning to normal operating hours by end of March.

I think that’s if you get it approved. Like we have to take it on our admin days per our local admin. Then we get free leave and can’t be called in.

Does that mean all training back to normal too/everyone recalled?

That I am not fully certain of. But the hours of operation returning to normal is for certain, no later than end of March.

Your talking about for the towers with reduced hours?

Sounds like the agency is dropping the “back to normal” hammer, I’d be surprised if a major increase in training isn’t to follow. Along with the end of EA.

I’m talking about any FAA facility that was on reduced hours.

“You’re”

How many people can this possibly affect? I can’t imagine any centers ever went to reduced hours. Or any core 30 airports and their associated tracons. So basically just the low level IFR towers and VFR towers who haven’t seen their traffic return yet?

FAA big wigs and NATCA regional are my sources.

Guess we will see how this plays out....

I’m still not buying it for sure, we will see but lots of places are scheduled past then already, plus I talked to high end people this week as well and they were saying May or later for the final hammer to drop.

The other thing is a lot. Maybe most of the facilities are trending towards yellow. Can’t wait to see how that goes over
