Anyone know if Charlotte is up/down level 12 or two different facilities? Does a controller need to check out in both? Thanks

Yup, up/down. There's video on youtube about it. I think its the only level 12 up/down and they are really hiring now. Filling 19 spots is the word I got.

The rules may be changing in some locations.

Very Good post. Read the article, splitting facilities is justification for the FAA to decrease the ATC level. Wow, what next? A new mathematical formula to downgrade higher ATC level facilities. Incredible....................

does anybody know how often they rate facilitys as far as moving them up a level? I read that DEN was the 5th busiest in the world and its only an 11.

I worked at Denver ARTCC and its a level 10. It's definitely crazy that the tower is an 11. Miami is another up/down level 12 facility by the way.

Orlando also, but I hear they are trying to separate it.
