=========================

BWI CONTROLLERS COMPLETE POTOMAC TRACON STAFFING
Forty air traffic controllers from Baltimore have moved into the FAA's new
approach facility in Warrenton, Va., joining controllers from four other
airports. The facility, called the Potomac Consolidated TRACON (Terminal
Radar Approach Control), opened last December to serve the busy
Baltimore-Washington area airspace. The BWI newcomers join controllers from
Washington Dulles International, Reagan Washington National, Richmond
International, Baltimore-Washington International and Andrews Air Force
Base. About 300 FAA employees at the center now handle about 5,000 flights a
day in 23,000 square miles of airspace covering parts of five states.
