Coordination lists #118

Add coordination lists. Manual 2-91

checkandmate1 commented 6 months ago

I just got some more information on this:

  1. Towers have very different rules for launching departures: image "ABC uses rundown and radar need to accept the request before IFR or VFRs depart. DEF doesn't use a rundown list so they need to 'verbally' coordinate and get approval for each IFR departure but not VFRs. XYZ uses the rundown list to give radar the departure sequence/rolling call etc but they don't need to get approval"
  2. An example coordination list would look something like this:
    .     PBED
    1   N12345 C172  BOX   H270

    PBED is the list name (not 100% sure what this is). Then, you have N12345 going to BOX, with the list remarks saying he's heading 270. The 1 N12345 C172 BOX H270 would flash white until the radar controller does F13 (optional ACID/BCN) ENTER. After it was accepted, 1 N12345 C172 BOX H270 would turn to a solid green color and show as 1 +N12345 C172 BOX H270. The + means the message was accepted. There will probably need to be some work done to how lists are made, just because some times, one line may be a flashing white while the rest of the list is green.
