TRAFFIC

At any given moment, on any given morning, there are roughly 6,000 planes on their way to somewhere, from somewhere, over American airspace. Getting them safely down to the ground will depend upon the efforts of a small group of controllers who, nearly without fail, get the job done despite long hours, grim working conditions, and ancient technology. Jeanne Marie Laskas journeys to the tower at LaGuardia Airport in New York City to find out how it all happens

man, thats a fantastic article. I wish that was in Time mag or some other national news mag. Really good
 
Pushing Tin anyone? :laff::laff:


Those ATO asshats made us come to a "briefing" last Wednesday that included time-wasting clips of pushing tin and Airplane. It was a waste of two hours, a long ass hike, and WE MISSED OUR NON-RADAR WRITTEN PV as a DIRECT result of it.

Gotta love it :)
