Hi Doug,
Yes almost everything we do IFR is co-ordinated with AA. If they have anything on left base for 25 or departing 07 its not a great idea.If we only get 3 thousand foot clearances for our morning outbounds its the quickest way to get them going but Eastern is partly correct, we don`t often get it when he`s on!!
Cool pic Jabberwok, it looks like you may have bust the noise a tad though!! Ha Ha !!
