Yup.
They don't let controllers get immunity from ASRS submissions anymore? Great! Lovely!

I see an ATC shortage on the horizon.
The only surefire way to screw yourself if you do commit a pilot deviation is NOT call the number they offer you after your flight. Then it's turned over to the FSDO, which means a certificate action can get underway.
Fun times. Why does aviation attract the worst in management?
