Listening to Real-World Radio Communications

I have a confession to make. When my family is travelling or even just late at night after they go to bed, I will cue up video after video of …

Real-world air traffic control recordings.

They provide great insight into accident and incident response - both good and bad. Or sometimes, they just provide some welcome comic relief in the most avgeek kind of way.

Spending time with our ATC cousins

i only occasionally get to spend time with the ATC community but last week offered one of those chances. My co-facilitator in Jakarta was Tim Abberton, a very experienced "airservices" ATC'er and safety guru and at least half the course were members of the Indonesian DGCA's Directorate of Air Navigation. The combined course was an excellent opportunity for the airport and air navigation worlds to work together as well as compare and contrast their approaches to similar problems.
