Topic:
Meet The Folks Up at KSTP Tower - Do We All See The Same Thing?
Speaker(s):
Keith Thompson, KSTP Controller
Brief Description:
**Attendance at the WINGS webinar at 7pm on Monday, 3/18/24 is required to attend this tour, event GL15127614. You will need to sign up for the webinar separately**
Join us up in the KSTP tower to meet the folks on the other side of the radio. Come learn what they see (and enjoy the view yourself), get your questions answered, see how planes are handed off between controllers, how to request "over the top", learn they actually prefer you talk to them instead of avoiding the Delta, help understand the collision risks with STP, SGS & MSP and so much more! If you fly out of SGS, we'll learn why it’s important to not turn right when taking off runway 34 and respect the Bravo when flying south.
Most of all we'll all remember / find out that controllers are just normal people and how we can work together to make flying the best and safest possible!
Please email me at ambyrpeterson@yahoo.com if you can attend the webinar at 3/18 and would be interested in an April tour instead of this date, we can set up additional tours.
