OB277: Brain Eating Bippies - a podcast by Air Traffic Talk

Episode 277 Show Notes

 

Topic of the show: RH and AG discuss the assignment of VFR flight following codes in busy Class Bravo airspace and how the services can be streamlined going in and out of an underlying Class Delta airport.  Why do some controllers issue codes and some do not?  Why is it so hard to get flight following when leaving certain Class Delta airports?  We answer these questions and many more on another fun and entertaining episode.  Thank you to all our new supporters!
