I used to listen to live ATC webcasts a couple of years ago and was
able to get LAX, DFW, Ohare, etc. Now the only link I can find is for
SoCal approach. The rest of the links are offline, some w/ messages
stating they were requested to stop transmission, etc. Is this due to
security concerns? Did some knucklehead actually think the San Diego
tower webcast was aiding terrorism?? What's next? A top secret
clearance for a wx brief? There are far too many people running
around like headless chickens over terrorism restrictions.


You can still listen to Seattle Center and Portland Approach and
Departure. I was listening just a few days ago.

I think this is the link:
http://www.seattleflight.com/liveatc.asp

I doubt that live ATC streams are going away because of terrorism. I
bet it has more to do with who is paying for it. Or, perhaps it's
just a hassle to deal with. But then again, I don't really know for
sure... I'm just a n00b.
