  1. Touching on some of the points above, and as Zachary said, it is crucial that POSCON avoids repeating the mistakes committed in the past by other 'legacy' networks. ATC Training has been a huge part of my duties as the only staff member in one of the networks only because I was the only active member qualified enough to provide basic training. And of course, since I am not that experienced, training takes more effort, longer time, and many mistakes to be able to perfect it as much as possible.
    There was never a reliable system for ATC training to be adopted for the division's needs, so we had to improvise and make our own ways.

    Centralization brings comfort to my ears honestly. If only we had some base to build upon, the whole task of mentoring a new air traffic controller would sound more pleasing.

    Looking forward to this part of POSCON!

  2. Hello again,

    As far as SOPs go, we previously created a document for VATSIM pilots flying in/out of OJAI with simple outlines: here.
    Aslo, for air traffic controllers willing to control in Jordan, @Mahmoud Fadli has created some documents long ago that I took as a reference to make a new one: here.

    For POSCON, I intend to help making newer versions, probably more detailed and with proper referencing to the official AIP. I wonder what POSCON is looking for or expecting the ACCs to deliver and how to deliver it. I can get help from many pilots and controllers in Jordan (hopefully), and I welcome help from any Jordanians here who joined and are willing to assist!

    Hi Andrew,

    Yes we definitely have EuroScope sectors -- I'll check the format. I know @Maher Abaza updated the sector to match the airport's real world specifications, in addition to some airspace updates.

    I think we have the guides in the updated SOP that we just received from CARC. I'll double check. As far as SOPs go, we'll reach out to our contacts and get those prepared.

    Hey guys,

    Our current sector files are in (.SCT) format, negative (.SCT2).
    As Mahmoud stated, I made some minor changes to those files, adding waypoints and SIDs, and also making a new ground layout.
    We have the latest charts for our main airport (OJAI) from the Civil Aviation Regulatory Commission (CARC).

    Let me know if there's anything I can do, always ready!
