Our Director - SINvACC, Lester Lee, will be stepping down from his position to move into VATSEA as Director of Conflict Resolution Management. This move will allow him to be more involved in the policy making in the South-East Asian region and will also free up his time to allow him to pursue his career as he moves on to the next phase of life and to more efficiently manage our partner airline, the Singapore Virtual Airlines Group.

The staff of SINvACC would like to thank Lester for leading SINvACC over the past three years. In this time, Lester has brought SINvACC from a small group of hobby-seeking controllers to a premier vACC in Asia. Under his leadership we have taken part in several international events including Worldflight and Eastern Winds. Lester has done a great many things during his time as Director, but the legacy he has left behind was being the bridge between Singapore and the rest of the world and giving our controllers a chance at the world stage. We would like to give Lester our heartfelt appreciation and wish him all the best as he develops his career.

Taking over the seat from Lester will be a familiar face, David Lee! David is no stranger, being one of the more active controllers and mentors in SINvACC and having helped to plan and execute many events. David has been working behind the scenes as a mentor for many months now taking a majority of our students. As our Director of Facilities Management, David has worked to create a new sector file for SINvACC and is pioneering the search for a more user-friendly vATC Client. Enthusiasm and cheerfulness are David's trademarks, and taking this into the role of Director will see interesting days for SINvACC ahead! We hope that during his time in leadership here, we will see more vibrancy and enthusiasm among our controllers!

See you on the scopes!

Jonathan Seet

Deputy Director - SINvACC
