Flight Strip Reduction/Elimination CWG
The facility is chartering a Collaborative Work Group (CWG) on reducing or eliminating paper flight strips. There will be at least one member from each area to represent the needs of their area. If you are interested in participating please let me know.
PSC/GEG
The target date for PSC/YKM sectors to move to GEG is October 2022. This date may slip depending on many factors. In the meantime we will be crafting a new LOA for GEG to include PSC/YKM sectors. I have spoken informally with many of you about things new would want to pursue in a reimagined LOA. So far some of the topics identified are:
Name of approach control to remain Spokane Approach? or change to another inclusive name.
Reduce manual coordination from aircraft between MIA and 090 at PSC/GEG.
CARP being used beyond mid shift times.
PSC staying open an extra hour.
YKM arrivals below 110 requires manual coordination, elimination of language.
If you have any other idea please let me know.
