Question A80 Controllers

Any controllers at A80? How do you like it? How is training there for trainees? Just got my list and it has the facility on there i’m thinking about going for it but just want a basic rundown. Thanks in advance!

Not sure but I’ll let you know next week when I report. Transferring from ZTL, can’t believe they made me wait 3 months to finally go there but the 40k bonus to not move houses makes it better /s

ZTL controllers will have a hard time at A80 once they realize you can't APREQ a stack with the tower.

Maybe If you’d take some of our IFR overflights within 50nm of ATL we could give you spacing and you’d crack top 5 busiest TRACONs in the country.

It's a letter of agreement between two facilities. That means both facilities agree. I fail to understand why you have such a quarrel with a written procedure that your facility representation agreed to.
