Tripping Down Lake Shore Drive, September 9, 2018

The SimpleFlight crew welcomes back Air Traffic Controller, Eddie Trujillo.\xa0 Eddie has been quite busy at C90 (Chicago Approach), including his recent checkout on North Satellite.\xa0 That means Eddie is now working all sectors around O'Hare, and its quite a challenge.

As we continue to collect survey responses (click the link above to add your voice), it was interesting to see multiple requests on how to fly VFR in a busy area like Chicago, including the beautiful Lake Shore Run.\xa0 The timing couldn't have been better, as Eddie tackled that with great insight for how best to partner with ATC to ensure a safe and enjoyable experience.\xa0

Eddie also talked about how his dream of being a pilot took him down a path in which he discovered his true passion... Air Traffic Control.

But the main message in this episode is the Pilot / Controller partnership.\xa0 We are all focused on the same goal, a safe flight.\xa0 And together, we make it happen.
