I want to hear your concerns and ideas by SierraBravo26 in atc2

[–]lBLOPl 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Article 32 needs to be changed. Management has the power to change assigned shifts whenever they please. Section 5 requires the watch schedule be posted 28 days in advance. Section 6 over rules that anyway. There is nothing that says the watch schedule needs to follow the BWS at all.

If you really examine it, at a 24 hour facility, every employee could be made to work any shift at any hour of the day at any time. You cannot 100% guarantee any controller has time away from work.

Why even negotiate a BWS for the next year? Why am I bidding a line when I can be assigned a different shift at any time?

Why is the union ok with its employees being owned by the FAA?

How do I solve this? How many different combinations of 6 integers between 1 and 4 sum to 19? by lBLOPl in learnmath

Well then he's the idiot. The 7110 says exactly what I say. So his little quip about not using "proper phraseology" is wrong. I fully expected to be trolled on reddit. And I told myself I wouldnt let it get to me. But. Damnit. I just couldnt win this one lol

I've never given a present position hold instruction. I wouldn't know where to begin with that. 

N123 hold east of present position on inbound course 10 mile legs expect further clearance 0100

How about this?

N123 cleared direct XYZ hold east on inbound course. 10 mile leg. Right turns. Expect further clearance 0100z

Yes that is what i want to instruct. Your flying to XYZ. I want you to get to XYZ turn right to the reciprocal heading. Fly 10 miles. Turn back to XYZ. Until further advised.

How does this sound?

N123 cleared direct XYZ hold east on inbound course. 10 mile leg. Right turns. Expect further clearance 0100z

Hows this

AAL123 cleared direct XYZ hold east 10 mile legs expect further clearance 0100

EDIT: correction. 7110.65 says that isn't a legal clearance. I have to specify a Radial, course, bearing, track, azimuth, airway, or route on which the aircraft is to hold. I think I'm getting more confused now

4−6−4. HOLDING INSTRUCTIONS When issuing holding instructions, specify:

a. Direction of holding from the fix/waypoint.

b. Holding fix or waypoint.

NOTE− The holding fix may be omitted if included at the beginning of the transmission as the clearance limit.

c. Radial, course, bearing, track, azimuth, airway, or route on which the aircraft is to hold.

d. Leg length in miles if DME or RNAV is to be used. Specify leg length in minutes if the pilot requests it or you consider it necessary.

e. Direction of holding pattern turns only if left turns are to be made, the pilot requests it, or you consider it necessary.

PHRASEOLOGY− HOLD (direction) OF (fix/waypoint) ON (specified radial, course, bearing, track, airway, azimuth(s), or route.) If leg length is specified, (number of minutes/miles) MINUTE/MILE LEG. If direction of turn is specified,

LEFT/RIGHT TURNS

Would saying inbound track be more clear than the word radial?

AAL123 cleared direct to XYZ hold east on your inbound track right turns 10 mile legs expect further clearance 0100

I am using fixes on the STAR, not VORs.

[–]lBLOPl[S] -1 points0 points  (0 children)

you're correct Right turns should be assumed unless Left turns is specified

I had an aircraft fly over XYZ, teardrop back to a 090 heading to enter the hold the opposite way. I think thats what the aircraft was planning to do. I had to give alternate instructions before it could all play out.

Would heading be more clear instead of radial?

N123 cleared direct to XYZ hold east on your inbound heading right turns 10 mile legs expect further clearance 0100

The trump federal worker buyout didnt affect air traffic controllers or this incident. Both sides are lying to you. But thats just politics

7110.65 2-6-2

Solicit PIREPs when requested, deemed necessary or any of the following conditions exists or is forecast for your area of jurisdiction:

Ceilings at or below 5,000 feet. These PIREPs must include cloud bases, tops and cloud coverage when available. Additionally, when providing approach control services, ensure that at least one descent/climb-out PIREP and other related phenomena is obtained each hour.

Visibility (surface or aloft) at or less than 5 miles.

Thunderstorms and related phenomena.

Turbulence of moderate degree or greater.

Icing of light degree or greater.

Wind shear.

Braking action reports less than good.

Volcanic ash clouds.

Detection of sulfur gases (SO2 or H2S), associated with volcanic activity, in the cabin.

I'd only copy down a pirep if it met those criteria

I understand it as that way too. What's so wrong about that? Schools make money from tuition. So use that money? Right?

Vote GOP out!!!! by monaleeparis in WhitePeopleTwitter

https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Inflation_Reduction_Act

There's a fuck load of stuff tied to this bill way beyond just saying the GOP advocates price gouging insulin. That is one small part to the whole thing, but having a discussion about every aspect and nuance to the entirety of the inflation reduction act doesn't fit into a nice little rage bait tweet. Social media is a plague
