I could not find it on flightaware. Perhaps a blocked aircraft?

A lesson learned is I should have immediately told ZNY to reroute the AAR dir ULW..YYU or something in their computer so that Toronto would have gotten the full flight plan via ZOBs HOST and that would have left me with relatively less workload.deltamike172https://www.blogger.com/profile/03440111329857048591noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1509900465677846838.post-2195125732317732202009-12-16T11:03:38.272-05:002009-12-16T11:03:38.272-05:00DM,

So many times it's easy to assume that you just don't want to talk when we check in initially and don't hear anything back immediately, but hearing that controllers have situations like this one is an easy reminder that we don't know what's going on on the other end of the line. Your blog is quite informative and your writing style keeps me checking back often for updates. Keep up the good work, and I'm sure I'll be talking to you soon!<br /><br />DSDavidnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1509900465677846838.post-46202551901497025252009-12-16T09:58:34.753-05:002009-12-16T09:58:34.753-05:00This is why 2 person mids are a bad idea.This is why 2 person mids are a bad idea.ZOB ETnoreply@blogger.com
