Major & LCTP (Local Competency Training Program) Airport List

Major and LCTP Positions Defined:

Under VATUSA policy, ARTCCs are allowed to assign certain facilities within their airspace a "major" status. ARTCCs are also allowed to assign certain positions within their airspace under their Local Competency Training Plan (LCTP). These fields/positions are assigned such status due to a number of elements. Traffic counts, airspace complexity, LoA with adjacent facilities etc. Once a field or position falls under a major or LCTP status extra training is required by the controller to receive a certification to control at these facilities/positions.
