Day 27:

Okay, we're back to using the runways that we're going to be operating when we PV. At first this problem was pretty slow and we told our lead instructor that it wasn't really challenging. She said, no problem, and added a bunch more airplanes. We should have kept our mouths shut.

Day 28:

Again, we're doing problems that have at least one touch and go, sometimes more, some planes are requesting a landing on one of the intersecting runways, and the weather changed from good VFR to marginal VFR (ceiling 2000, vis 3). We had lots and lots of IFR arrivals, but they're very easy to handle since they're already lined up for the ILS by approach. We just clear 'em to land. In addition, airport management decides to close a taxiway briefly and ground has to maneuver planes around the closed area. Also, there is some vehicle movement on the movement area. There are two overflights that request to come through the airspace at 1000'. You simply approve the request, issue traffic if necessary, and give the altimeter. Easy enough.
