Any Air Traffic Controllers on FfXU?

Just wondering. If yes, you must answer these questions in order for me to believe you.

1.) What is the minimum seperation for a BE55 behind an Airbus A380?
2.) What is the type designator for the Airbus A380?
3.) In a Data Tag, what letter, if any, would appear after the speed of an Airbus A380?

Dear Future Controller,
Your operative word is "FUTURE". You are a douche bag that has probably washed out somewhere between Phase 1 and 4 in Ok City. You will be lucky if you can bring coffee to TMU, which might be your best shot at ever seeing live traffic displayed on glass. With a little luck, you might end up in a staff position somewhere wishing you could figure out what to put in field 10 of a fucking FDB. Fuck off.
Must answer your questions???? Really? You fucking dick. Go back to playing your little Flight Ops app.
Actually, I'm guessing you might want to be a controller but not actually anywhere near being one, hence the desire to call one's self "Future", when in reality, you can spell FAA, ATC, NAS is you were spotted the vowels.

"Pushing Tin" is a great movie about air traffic controllers, and it has a pre-Brad Pitt Angelina Jolie in it.

Ummmm....I'm talking about a movie with Angelina Jolie, I don't care how realistic the air traffic control scenes were.



Do people watch Tomb Raider to learn about archaeology?

I have during one of these: http://www.faasafety.gov/SPANS/event_details.aspx?eid=43838

Was quite interesting, albeit somewhat longer length in time than I was expecting up front (literally multiple hours long).

Any aircraft has a 6 nautical mile separator from the A380 during approach. Except another A380; then it is 4 nmi. Planes on the ground have to wait a minimum of 2 minutes AFTER an A380 takes off to take off.

> 2.) What is the type designator for the Airbus

ICAU A380, IATA 380

True airspeed for the initial or whole cruise segment of the
flight, indicated as: “N” for Knots, followed by a four-digit
figure, “M” for Mach number followed by a three-digit
representation of ratio, or “K” for Kilometers/hour followed
by a four-digit number

Then you could very well have started your statement off by saying "Tombraider is a great movie about archaeoligists..." Same thing, right?
But, I must add that I jumped a bit to quickly to be criticle of your post. My apologies. So, no more criticism.
"Pushing Tin" is entertainment and not intended to be factual, accurate or educational. It has Billy Bob Thornton in it, for god's sake, so it does not stand out as a potential Academy nominee. One of his few credible acting jobs was "A Simple Plan." "Pushing Tin" was not an example of fine acting.

And you are? Seems like you're the one who got washed out, or some fanatic who was never picked up. It's kind of sad...

Also, that last sentence. Is that even English? Are you autistic or something? Fuck off, faggot. I hope I meet you someday.

1. 8 miles
2. A388
3. J is used to designate "super" where you would see the H for "heavy" or F for the B757.
