Aviation and ATC…

I am interested in all things aviation related. So as a self-confessed “Aviation Geek” or “Aviation Enthusiast” this is my first post of many about aviation related topics.

I find it interesting and enjoyable to listen to ATC (air traffic control) with the ATC app on my iPhone (LiveATC) or listing on the internet at http://www.liveatc.net/.  The speed at which a lot of information is passed between air traffic controllers, pilots and ground service personnel can make your head spin. I usually listen to the controllers at YVR, but the app and website mentioned above lets people listen to airports around the world.

Different air traffic controllers are responsible for different operations in and around the airport as well as between airports. I will be writing more about the different ATC positions and responsibilities in the future.
