I wasn’t able to stay long but I’d give you an A. Being ATC in the TS1 is a chore. It’s hard trying to learn when pilots don’t listen.

A few things:

  • Response times. They need to be sped up vastly
  • Immediate TO’s. No need to use for me. There was no-one on base, let alone final. Only use when aircraft are much closer on final (3-5nm). The ATC scouts/trainers can tell you more details
  • SEQUENCING: None was received. "I’ll call your base’ is not a replacement
  • Telling people to contact you on tower; they were not even close to being ready for departure either
  • Runway changes: randomly cleared for 27R and not 27L. No runway change was given (ask ATC people for specifics again. I know there it is more complex than this)
  • Cleared to land and not for the option; remaining in the pattern = cleared for option

Hope to see you controlling again soon (:

Thanks. I have never done any before in that capacity but I though i’d give it a go. There are so many technicalities for me to brush up on.

Thanks for your feedback

Watch the ATC tutorial videos and read some forum ones. They really help!

I will do. I’m flying around for a few T/D’s now and then I’ll have a gander

Most importantly: SEQEUNCE! It is the holy grail of ATC, yet many do not know if exists. It helps pilots coordinate themselves and also allows you to get them to continue a without clearing for landing.

In my head I know it makes sense but I need much more practice to do better. Practice and understanding
