Yooper Rocketman Posted March 22, 2020 Report Share Posted March 22, 2020 Indy Center was having issues today too. I flew from the U.P. to KOSU (Columbus, OH) on my trip to Florida because I was picking up and dropping a friend off in KAAF to drive his mom home. Picking up my clearance I was cleared to 3k, expect 10k in 10 minutes??? I asked the controller “ did I screw up my flight plan, thought I filed FL280? He said no, Indy Center was down (I assume “THE VIRUS”) and all traffic south until ATL Center was being handled by approach controllers and nothing above 13k would be available. I got passed by an Airbus motoring along at 10k. That was weird! i DID eventually get an Indy controller south of KCVG and got FL280 before I had to add a fuel stop. This plane DRINKS FUEL down low!

Mark I WAS THINKING EXACTLY THAT, as I was complaining about my 48 gallon per hour fuel burn to ATC looking for higher. Tom Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
markgrue Posted March 22, 2020 Report Share Posted March 22, 2020 I guess they cannot just announce their intentions and go with it.... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
