ATC on our server all week

Hey Eric M,

KSLC is one of the most challenging location especially when it comes to ATC. I was the KSLC approach during our first ATC days, and boy I had a hoot. All those terrains around sure make you sweat.

One thing that I found helpful is to have STAR and approach plates for the corresponding airport. And I always make a note of MSA (Minimum Safe Altitude) from the approach plates before clearing them for approach.

Here are some of the pictures from the KSLC approach.

Thanks Eric for all your dedication to SPA. This service you are providing for all of us is a jewel. Keep up the good work Mr. ATC guy.

I hope Ken made out OK.

Who's up for KDEN to KSLC again for this weekend's flight? Chris and Eric you guys free for some professional ATC?

FYI, SLC at night is a whole different animal. Eric was aware of the MSA south and west of SLC International; however MS may be a bit off; he had me about 3-400 feet above the highest marked terrain, however I still ended up in the mts to the sw of the field. No lighting at all at night on these fine hills!

I hope to fly into MSP tonight and also hope to be on tomorrow..1630 zulu arrival roughly tomorrow is what time central Daylight time? 1130???
