Are C.A.T. restrictions in place for this?

I will most likely be providing Ground Services at IAH for the first leg.  Can I count that as a leg toward the Hub Tour award?

Michael / et. al.,

Maybe it's just me, but I read Will's response to imply that working the ATC side would qualify toward the Hub Tour Ribbon.

I just want to be clear.  I think there was a tiny miscommunication here.  We greatly welcome and encourage y'all to work the ATC side of these events.  However, providing ATC services will not qualify towards earning the HUB Tour Award.  The requirements of that award state that you need to fly a minimum of three legs that connect the 4 VCAir hubs.

Hope this helps clarify things.

Sorry about that. Michael, I mis-read your post.  You have to fly to qualify.

The Continental Hub Tour Award flights can be flown at any time.  The Event Award can only be received if you fly within the designated time frame of the Event in question.  That would mean in order to received the Event Award you would need to depart with the rest of the group at the designated departure time, which is 6:00 PM EDT on May 3rd & 10th, and 3:00 PM EDT on May 17th & May 24th.
