ATC Zero

Whoops for some reason I thought you were at Center. Hoping things don't get too crazy for you guys over there.
 
Better whip out those E6Bs, brush up on T/D/S math, and do a little nav review. Sound's like it's getting rugged out there. The good news is, you won't have to worry about recalling how to do over-fix position reports, just class G/E airport ones.
 
Ground stop is lifted but expect LGA and FRG towers to go ATC-0 if they haven’t already. Only 2 areas at ZNY remaining closed til disinfected but u don’t know which areas. A lot, if not most, of the NYC area traffic doesn’t even talk to ZNY but gets fed to us straight from ZDC and ZBW. Expect reroutes that take you into their airspace (is over SHAFF or PHLBO rather than SWEET for EWR).
 
The same reason we ("we") didn't start doing lots of obvious and critically important things two months ago.

With disease and democracy "we" get what, ahem, we deserve.

My very first facility (ZBW Area E), before I smartened up and went the approach route. SHAFF on the 53 (crickets)
