I thought that you might be interested with some ATC sites which are great fun
and a good alternative to the FS. There is a wonderful (Netherlands based) website full of ATC items as well as some good general aviation info:- www.atcbox.com How about the webcam from the inside of the tower at AMS airport, or the live radar displays? If that is not enough, then there is the live ATC broadcast. Try listening to AMS approach around 0900 GMT!!!!! Well worth a visit for all FSers.To complement this, there is always the fun ATC online simulator, www.atc-sim.com You can set the level of difficulty (eg approach only) and choose the airport and it becomes really addictive. Some people can spend hours on this site, as the high scores show.
So when you need a change from FS, then have a look at these sites. Recommended!!! Bit of humour from their site to finish off........
Twr: "Captain, FYI, you were just left of centre."
Cpt: "Yeah and my co-pilot was just on the right."
"I don't mind altitude separation as long as they're not on top of each other."
"We were told Rwy 09...we'll take out the 14R approach plate."
"Captain you got sixty miles to take it out...have a ball."
Tower: "Height and position?"
Pilot: "I am 1.80 m and I'm sitting in the front on the left side.'
Smooth landings!!!
