Which one of the following is you? Tell us about yourself!

[Old Dog Flying]

I'm a retired Air Traffic Controller, having spent 49+ years in the Canadian Air Force/Civilian ATC system.  I've worked as a tower/terminal data assistant, GCA controller, Tower and Terminal controller, Tower Chief and other positions.

I'm also a Commercial pilot and retired flight instructor with qualification in 87 different types of aircraft including dual in the CF-104D Starfighter.

It has been a blast to say the least.

New to the site... kinda neat though my freqs aren't available for anyone to hear me. I'm ATC NY Center 132.15 out of Barnegat NJ and 125.92 out of Marthas Vineyard, MA. If anyone in those areas providing feeds would add those freqs, would be appreciated. I will look into provding a feed eventually as I live near Islip Airport.

Good ol' JOBOC 65 and ATLANTIC 86. There was a guy in Cape Cod that ran a feed with JOBOC on it. But to my understanding he moved.

[znymz]

Well, 65 Joboc is probably one of the slowest sectors in the northeast, 86 Atlantic would be the better one.

Found this site this morning. I use 4 scanners to monitor ATC traffic and miltary air traffic. I have 10+ unidentified ATC freqs that I also monitor.

I am a licensed commercial pilot with instrument, multi-engine and sea-plane ratings. I am now working on a helicopter rating, and will follow that with my ATP. And yet, I still can't get enough!! Listen to LiveATC almost every night!!!

I listen to MSP Approach while I am doing my flight planning to get a feel for what is going on out there  - turbulence, ice, crowded freq, etc. Also listen to my fellow flying club members, and my husband's flights on commercial airlines.

[6000&Airborne]

I work at ORD in one of the ramp control towers and provide pushback clearances & clearances to enter the ramp area to taxi to the gate.  We control the "uncontrolled" non-movement area.   Moo-hoo-ha-ha-ha-ha!

Our tower controls 45 gates at terminal 2 in the "Y" concourse (shaped as the letter Y) and in the fox alley (alleyway named after the foxtrot gates).  

Went to school in Alaska for ATC and graduated May '05, so just sitting around with my thumb up my ERRRRRR, waiting to get hired.  

Fun stuff though (the ramp control you sick $@#!).

I just found the site and am a new regular.  I have developed a major fear of flying since my mid 20's and am now in my early 30's.  I have tried medication and hypnosis with minimal luck.  I love to travel and want to overcome this fear so I can enjoy my time away from work (without always riding in a car).  

By the way, I am a control freak..............my guess as to where my fear originates.  Either way I am learning a lot from this site.
