Now please keep in mind that it’s crucial to follow ALL ATC instructions. These procedures serve as a strong recommendation and will help smoothen the arrival flow into LAX tomorrow. Looking foward to a fun and busy day!
@Dillon_Lewis you sir are a scholar and a gentleman. You’re the first ATC I have seen encouraging use of IFR procedures! We need more of this! I’ll try to make it tomorrow if I can.
you IFATC are so lucky. controlling ATC at one of the busiest times and places sounds like a dream come true, and you can ghost the trolls too! have fun!
I don’t think there’s enough space for departures, for example, there’s a sid that goes southeast, and it directly goes through that sequence. I’ll find it again
You’re welcome for helping you out with ALL the formatting on this thread 😡. In actually, great post Dillon, gave me some decent reading material for my layover :)
@Dillon_Lewis do the IFATC controllers who are controlling like KLAX KJFK or EGLL have pre-made plan for how they are going to tackle the traffic like the picture in my post above
In most cases, the aircraft will be in decent lines already since planes would have already been under the control of a previous controller. When jumping into a busy airspace, a plan is always good for how you line up the planes, but you also need to be fluid and flexible in modifying it as a controller since there will always be exceptions that won’t fit perfectly.
We have a plan which combines, @KyleBoas, a number of arrival and departure procedures so that we can efficiently get planes in and out. We used this previously and it was highly effective.
