NY Tracon is always fun to fly through. I'd flown with this controller once before, but didn't have it recorded. On my last flight, though, I had saved enough battery/tape to capture the return flight home, including the interaction with the NY approach controller on 127.60 (works Newark satellite arrivals (TEB, MMU, CDW, N07).
He's not at all busy in this clip, but you just know that the guy could handle a bajillion planes in his sleep...he's clearly been doing this for a very long time. My favorite part is when he apologizes to a guy for continually messing up his aircraft type because he remembers a time 25 years ago when that callsign used to be a Jetstar!
More detail is available in the log of my flight from
Lincoln Park to Hazleton and back. (Video is there, too, click the 'KHZL to N07' video link. The attached excerpt was taken from the 2nd video, from the 5min mark onwards).
Dare I say, the Boston John of TRACON?
