Hey - I just decided to make a tracking thread for my ATC sessions. Here I (like most) will announce whenever I’m live on Air Traffic Controlling.
Feedback for any session would be very much appreciated - good or bad.
If anyone asks “Have you considered joining IFATC the answer is yes, but I don’t reach the age requirement 🙂
Thanks,

I have been waiting for this for a loooooong time. I was waiting so much that I decided to make my own thread, which went terrible.

Yep, I knew that one. I think it was just on your first TouchandGo that I gave it accidently
Thanks for the reminder! I don’t control often

Ok ,
First off, you said you would call my base which wasn’t needed because that’s mostly used as a spacing command and there was only one other person at the airport.
Secondly, you used the same runway for arrivals from both ends which caused a collision between that jetblue guy and myself. I suggest you should be more aware and should’ve saw that collision coming and issued either one of us a go-around command to prevent it
Lastly, good job issuing me a pattern entry since I changed runways! Thanks for a good session

Thanks for the feedback. Jetblue entered straight in so I gave him a command to t&g on that runway. Then I instructed you to turn base and maintain slowest practical speed. So there shouldn’t of been a collision. Yes you are right though, I should’ve given him a go-around command
