Please join me in a mandatory, half-hearted round of applause for our newest, shiniest, fully-authorizediest Class B Ground Controller, Jack Levine (LV)! Jack handled everything I could throw at him and more and is ready to start crunching (whoops, I mean pushing) tin during events and more. Congratulation, Jack!

Sweet! Awesome to see RI, keep it up! -
I will be controlling for the event, however, I reserved a booking so that anyone who wasn't able to book a flight could have one. Give me a shout if you want my booking and we can coordinate the swap. Please only contact me if you're committed to flying - I don't want a booking going to waste. KBOS -> EGCC (Manchester). Departure Time: 11:32:00Z EDIT: Gone!

Yes, you heard that right, BVA has yet another new Class C Ground controller! Put your hands together for Alfredo Gomez (GZ) and welcome him to the team. He managed to handle everything that was thrown at him during the OTS including helicopters, PRP flights, and that funky new Spirit A330. I look forward to working with him on the scopes!

A big round of applause to BVA's newest ground controller, Nicholas Freeman (FN)! He handled everything in the OTS great, including helicopters, PRP flights, and having to cross the same runway two times! Welcome to the team and have fun!
