I have been on both sides of the mic. If a VFR aircraft chooses to proceed
through a HOT MOA and mix it up with fast fighters doing ACM (air combat maneuvers) and I am not controlling the fighters. He is on his own. BT "Steven P.

![]() "Steven P. McNicoll" wrote Weak stick. How so? He was advised to go around, and chose not to. If it was a good idea to go through, he would not have suggested to go around. I would not fault a controller not wanting any part of a flight through a hot MOA. Are you saying that you would be happy to continue being responsible, as a controller, for a plane flying through a hot MOA? -- Jim in NC |

Not the pilot, "weak stick" refers to a poor controller. BT said he has been on both sides of the mic, and would terminate flight following for an aircraft that chose to go through a hot MOA. I would not fault a controller not wanting any part of a flight through a hot MOA. Are you saying that you would be happy to continue being responsible, as a controller, for a plane flying through a hot MOA? Been there, done that. But ATC is not responsible for separation between the using aircraft and VFR aircraft that choose to fly through a MOA. Flight following is simply traffic advisories. |
