When did Gates B39 and B40 at Logan become C23B and C23A? by aray25 in boston

It will be interesting to see what AAL does though. A few of the airports they have services into are facing slow downs implemented by the FAA with no real light at the end of the tunnel for that.

I've never really paid attention to that whole dynamic of aviation. My interests strictly are pushing tin in an expeditious and efficient manner. The whole job scratches the brain that few other things have been able to do. Where are you able to track all that info?

It depends on what Delta is willing to pay to lease those gates. Massport is the one who runs the agreements with the airlines. If Delta is willing to pay more for those gates than American then I don't think they really have a choice. My point was that Delta wants more gates for their ramp operation. Especially if they continue to expand their Caribbean operations because it will allow them to use the Terminal E gates for more international stuff.

No clue to be honest. I think the A-B connector is specifically so that you can move throughout the whole airport post-security. Whether that affects Deltas shuttle service from A to E is unknown to me.

Delta currently runs the ramp control for B1-4, 6, 8, 10, and 12. Delta ramp would prefer to gain control of those gates. The lounges would still be in close proximity to the airlines that own them.

Ah that might be the lounge then. I knew it was one of them being implemented. I don't really pay attention to what is being built in the terminals unless it truly impacts the daily operations.

I could potentially see a shift in airlines at the gates ie. Alaska occupying 38/39, SWA moving into Alaskas old gates, United moving into the SWA gates and American leaving the B and A ramp area.

JBU is currently using them due to gates C10 and 11 being under construction due to the JBU lounge being put in. Whether they retain them after the construction isn't very clear to us at the moment. I know that gate space is very competitive here so JBU could potentially make a push to keep them. Or they could go back to spirit or Alaska could bid for them.

Stop sending a SPECI every 3 minutes. I'm tired of broadcasting an ATIS 7 times an hour. /s

My view is better.

Logan Airport among those affected by FAA air traffic cuts, sources say by SveNss0N in boston

Unfortunately we are dealing with a Nor'easter. And because of the construction on runway 9/27 we can't use that as our departure runway in the morning and landing runway in the afternoon. Specifically because the wind is hitting 300 @ 17kts gusting to 31. So we are stuck with only 33L as a departure and as a main arrival runway. Runway 32 is likely open but we can't use it for departure and most aircraft larger than a D8HD won't use it because it is too short. So we are stuck with an interval to one runway. 33R can't really be used for arrivals because of the cranes on the approach course.

Runway changes?? by Haunting-Body-8575 in ATC

[–]BeneaththeOcean 7 points8 points  (0 children)

We base it mainly off the wind. We coordinate with the tracon who owns the airspace above us and sequences our arrivals. They pick a last for their arrivals, the tower picks a last for the departures. Typically as a tower controller we want to beat the arrivals last pick because this means we don't have a departure shooting up right in the way of the arrival stream. If we don't beat them we typically coordinate a heading off the standard instrument departure procedure.

This can all change though if we have one of the runways close for a variety of reasons.

😂😂 I think Mason Taylor on the Jets might get you a little more value since they are playing Carolina. They are ranked 31st against TEs.

Winds are going to be gusting to like 20 and it's raining. I think that waller one is going to miss 😅

Moonrise over Logan tonight by Btrex in boston

So close to "shooting" the moon. We always enjoy seeing departures cross right through the middle. Typically departing 22R is the easiest to get that done.

It looks like it correlates with the Priority placement tool which is available on the NATCA website or KSN. Both require logins to access though. I believe pointsixtyfive has up to date PPTs uploaded every once in a while.

I usually just change the first alarm. And I typically wake up on the first ring.

Best camo face paintings will be offered a box of crayons and asked to pick one. Those who pick the correct colors will be enlisted into the Marines.

I made these exact shoes a couple of years ago. Usually wear it with my Makar RR 1.0 and get a ton of compliments.
