I've never heard of some of these places, DVT must be a horrible place to work. Over 300k GA operations!

We worked 260K last year and they are mostly foreign students. Downside is we arent getting FAA pay/benefits since its a contract tower, but I love working traffic so its not all bad. This year has slowed up a bit with the heat, high winds here and rising fuel prices.
