Why should I attend? All attendees who currently hold these positions or are interested in learning more about stepping into a legislative leadership position are encouraged to attend. This class will help you develop new and existing skills to keep up with today's ever-changing legislative environment. Instructors: Richard "Tiny" Fagg was hired in 1991 and sent to his first facility, Bethel, Alaska, a non-radar approach control/tower. In 1996, when BET was contracted out, he switched options to become a center controller at Anchorage ARTCC. In 2008, he was thrust into the position of FacRep for Anchorage Center (ZAN) in the middle of the White Book and attended his first NiW in 2009 where he learned just how truly important NATCA's legislative efforts are. He became the NLC's Alaskan Region Chair in 2013 and has been honored to represent Alaska in that capacity and speak on the region's behalf.
