1. PURPOSE.
This Standard Operating Procedure (SOP) outlines the procedures to be used by controllers working ZLA positions to ensure that aircraft flying between ZLA-owned airports not covered by TEC routes are routed properly and consistently.
2. ROLES AND RESPONSIBILITIES.
The Office of Primary Responsibility (OPR) for this SOP is the ZLA Senior Staff. This SOP was originally signed by Tim Roden, ZLA Training Administrator, on January 14, 2016. This SOP shall be maintained, revised, updated or cancelled by the ZLA Staff or any organization that supersedes, replaces or assumes the Staff responsibilities. Any suggestions for modification/amendment to this SOP should be sent to the Staff for review.
