Additional Event Information & Acknowledgement of Industry Sponsor(s):

Meet the faces behind the mic on the ATC side of the LEX radio frequencies! Controllers Kase McDonald and Wally Briggs will describe local ATC procedures and how new controllers are trained at the tower.  Participation will be encouraged throughout the seminar as well as in a Q & A session at the end.  

If you have ever wondered why controllers gave you one route instead of another, or why a certain phraseology was used in a situation, this is an opportunity to receive information "from the source" in a relaxed setting on the ground.

This seminar is scheduled to last two hours with breaks; from 7:00 -9:00 p.m.  Attendees will receive one hour of WINGS credit.  There will be light refreshments and door prizes!

Thank you, Aero-Tech and LEX ATCT personnel, for your support of this WINGS safety event!
