On this episode, I talk about what it is like to work at an enroute center. I discuss what a normal day is like, what the traffic is like. I talk about what kinds of sectors I worked in my specialty.

I describe the different positions there are at a center. What they do and how they are staffed.

I talk about breaks. How often you get them and how long they may last. I also talk about some of the things you can do around the center on your breaks.

I talk about weather, the impact it can have, and how that impact is different from the impact it has at an airport.

From there, I go into what my time was like at ZFW, FT Worth Center. I talk about the impact my trainers had on me; even if I didn't enjoy being a trainee.

I spend a little time on how I DID enjoy being a trainer and helping new controllers learn the ropes.

That is what led me into offering an online coaching program for academy students. I briefly touch on it today and ask for your input about what you might like to see in that type of program.

I want to thank you all for listening and supporting these podcasts.
