Who is responsible for recording vectors for a KGWO arrival?

The Radar Controller is responsible for recording vectors for a KGWO arrival due to their specific role in managing air traffic in the radar environment. This responsibility is part of the overall function of a radar controller, who actively monitors and directs aircraft, ensuring safe and efficient arrivals. They use their training and expertise to provide accurate vectoring instructions, which are crucial for maintaining safe separation between aircraft and facilitating smooth transitions into the terminal airspace.

In contrast, other roles like Flight Progress Assistants support the radar controllers by handling administrative tasks and managing flight progress data, but they do not actively direct or vector the aircraft. The Chief Air Traffic Controller oversees operations but is not directly involved in the hands-on vectoring of arrivals. Lastly, designating the responsibility to any available staff member could lead to inconsistencies and safety concerns, as vectoring requires specialized knowledge and training. Therefore, the Radar Controller's specific expertise and responsibilities are vital for accurately recording and managing vectors for arrivals.
