Displaced AFSS "controllers" heading for BIL and GRB

Well Newps,

The bids have come out for displaced Flight Service controllers to enter the
terminal ATC environment. Looks like KBIL is one of the places they will be
selecting into. I don't see a single ARTCC on the list, just ATC level 6,7
and 8 terminal facilities.

Good luck...

Chip, ZTL
