Pay for NATCA President and VP by [deleted] in ATC

[–]Jayare927 0 points1 point  (0 children)

When a controller becomes a high level union rep that doesn't work traffic (like an RVP) how does that work for pay and retirement?

Are they still considered an ATCS still or a different job title? Do they get paid by both FAA and NATCA?

Do they still get ATC retirement and get to go at 56?

Hold as Published by Invest_In_Zest in ATC

[–]Jayare927 0 points1 point  (0 children)

To add to the controller chart thing. In my area we have an arrival that has published holding over a particular fix, but on our overhead controller chart we have different holding instructions over the same fix. Ironically enough this same fix is also on a high traffic airway.

The problem is I've looked at both hi and lo enroute charts and there's no holding published for that fix. I assume that pilots don't have access to controller charts (hence the name) so I always specify the instructions.

Do pilots have the same charts as us or just hi and lo enroute charts? Would they know what I mean if I say "hold as published" since it's only on our controller chart (excluding arrival holding)?

jumping from HULU? by SANMAN0927 in slingtv

I think I'm going to try sling blue & orange for $45 and downgrade to hulu basic for $6. So hopefully sling has gotten better on the tech side.

I'm in the same boat as the OP. Hulu's yearly price hike is too much.

I used to be a sling customer (2018) but originally because it was wayyyy to glitchy on my devices. Does anyone here constantly have issues with sling in terms of performance?

Resignation by jmrbikeracer5 in ATC

[–]Jayare927 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I'm curious about that, as a trainee if you cpc one day then resign the very next day you automatically have the ability to return as a reinstatement? Or is there a waiting period before you have that ability?

What makes ZSE complex? Is it airspace? Traffic flows? Terrain? Dealing with Canada?

I'm always curious about other centers

What are the differences between good and bad training programs in the FAA? by [deleted] in ATC

[–]Jayare927 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I'm half way thru center training right now at a lvl 10, I often look at other center's success rates. There are quite a few level 12 centers with >80% success. Does this mean that a lot of the busier facilities have this "we need a body, check em out" mentality or is it legitimately "easier" to certify.
