Flying out of SMF with Ashe was a blast. She did an amazing job up on TWR, moving lots of planes quickly, efficiently, and safely. She was also welcoming and lighthearted, which made my flying experience even better.
Had an amazing experience flying out of SMF. Reagan was doing an awesome job on GND, even with lots of traffic and pilots all over the place, while still being lighthearted and welcoming. I am looking forward to flying out of her airspace again!
Had a great time flying out of SMF during this FNO. Grant was doing an outstanding job at DEL, even though he was slammed with planes calling up. Looking forward to flying out again!
