Just so everyone knows - I was only kidding when I mentioned Canada. I am happy to fly anywhere PE goes with this great professional service!! That is what is most important to me.

Not specific to Bravo's, but one option could be to have limited ATC support from newer fields. For example consider opening KSJC with only 1 SID and only departure to KLAX/KSAN using that SID. This will allow addition of more airports without significant workload on the existing controller. I may be oversimplifying though.

Unfortunately, I think that goes against PE's mantra of quality over quantity. I would prefer to wait longer and have fewer airports, but to have the "full experience" at that airport as opposed to a pre-determined roadmap. Then again, I may just be rambling..

On a somewhat related topic...

I see in PEAWARE that some people have logged flights to several airports in Florida and other locations outside the standard service area. I imagine these are individual arrangements with particular flight schools, or some other special accommodation.

The question is, are these airports available to the rest of us, even at an additional charge??

There is only one other area that is being staffed and it's not for public use (it's just a single field with limited fidelity). Everything that you're seeing in Florida, JFK, ATL, ORD, etc, are completely uncontrolled.
