Narrative:
Controllers keep entering incorrect data for types of aircraft into the stars system; ie: da-40 for a da-42; PA-28 for a PA28A or P28R or P28B. These errors will result in an ATC error if compliance is not mandated. The use of lahso operations applies to specific types of aircraft for certain landing distances. If the correct information is not in the data block; a controller may issue a lahso instruction to the aircraft that is not allowed to lahso for the distance available. Training on the types of aircraft that are allowed to lahso for our operations and correct aircraft identify will correct this problem. Also; observation will be needed by supervision to ensure compliance.

Title: DAB CTLR VOICED CONCERN REGARDING INCORRECT CTLR ENTERED STARS ACFT TYPE INFO; ADDING; LAHSO IS DEPENDENT ON CORRECT INFO.
Narrative: CTLRS KEEP ENTERING INCORRECT DATA FOR TYPES OF ACFT INTO THE STARS SYS; IE: DA-40 FOR A DA-42; PA-28 FOR A PA28A OR P28R OR P28B. THESE ERRORS WILL RESULT IN AN ATC ERROR IF COMPLIANCE IS NOT MANDATED. THE USE OF LAHSO OPS APPLIES TO SPECIFIC TYPES OF ACFT FOR CERTAIN LNDG DISTANCES. IF THE CORRECT INFO IS NOT IN THE DATA BLOCK; A CTLR MAY ISSUE A LAHSO INSTRUCTION TO THE ACFT THAT IS NOT ALLOWED TO LAHSO FOR THE DISTANCE AVAILABLE. TRAINING ON THE TYPES OF ACFT THAT ARE ALLOWED TO LAHSO FOR OUR OPS AND CORRECT ACFT IDENT WILL CORRECT THIS PROB. ALSO; OBSERVATION WILL BE NEEDED BY SUPERVISION TO ENSURE COMPLIANCE.
