I remember reading recently where Keith was considering expanding the coverage area a little for the jet routes. Any update on this? Thanks

Not yet. I'm working on getting the funding for it, but before I can do that, I have to finish off this commercial training product that is nearing completion.

The addition of Pacific oceanic control would be really nice for flights coming in from the west.

Alan, we're going to evaluate which airspace would provide the greatest value to the greatest number of pilots. There is a finite amount of airspace that can be covered by the expansion. If we can include it without increasing the staffing obligation, or increasing the workload for the new positions by too much, then we will.
