PREVIOUS RESULTS ***
A lot has been said about the coming controller crisis, much of it
here on AVweb. Last week, we asked if our readers have
noticed any symptoms of the crisis, such as increased denial of VFR
flight-following services or requests for practice approaches.
27% of those who responded confirmed that yes, they had
experienced (or heard over their own radios) more denied requests in
recent months. At the other end of the spectrum, more than 50% of
you said that you had no personal knowledge of the reduction of either
service.
