the better sites?

I posted the best resource for online ATC streaming. Did you miss that post
or is there something in my post's headers that results in them being

Peter,

I didn't miss your post. It said there were over a 150 options. I was
wondering if you could recommend a few. Or are they all the same.

Thank you for posting that information!

To what type of traffic do you want to listen? A busy commercial airport?
A busy general aviation airport? A sector of airspace (perhaps near some
airport)? Something else?

I'm not sure. I'm new to this. I guess a commercial airport? i'm
looking for something that has a lot of tranmissions and activity and
possibly something interesting going on.

Then just listen to a few of different types, and see what attracts/holds
your interest.

Even that doesn't help; what is "interesting" to you may be dull to
others. I've little interest, for example, in listening to a commercial
airport. Listening to busy GA airports, to me, is more fun.

Listening to a busy GA airport while trying to work, though, would be a
Bad Idea. In that case, I'll listen to a place a little more "sleepy".

Then there's the idea of listening to traffic in a chunk of airspace. I
find en route dull; I'd rather listen to airspace with a lot of arrivals
or departures. But just listening to the cattle cars lining up for a JFK,
though, isn't too exciting. For me. Others may have very different
opinions.

So try a bunch, and see what you like.

In his first post he ask what BUGSY. BUGSY is Malone-Dufort Airport at Malone,
NY and later he ask what heavy was. My guess is he's near Montreal.

BUGSY is NOT Malone-Dufort Airport, nor is at Malone, NY. It is the
missed approach fix on both GPS approach plates to KMAL (Malone-Dufort
Airport) and is about 11.2 nm from KMAL. The closest town to BUGSY is
Mountain Veiw, NY, not Malone, NY. BUGSY is also a fix on the enroute LO
and HI charts.

I did not know that. I wonder what airport BUGSY is near? I wonder what town
that airport is near? I just can't seen to figure it out. Maybe someone smart
like you could tell me the way.

Enter the fix name into airnav.com. That will give you information
about the fix including lat & long, what charts it appears on, nearest
airport, and nearest town. Then look at the referenced charts for the lat
& long. If IAPs, look at the airport entry in airnav and then look at the
IAPs for that airport.

Ah, sorry for the misinterpretation. I thought my link didn't make it
through.

The feeds on LiveATC.net are a total blend of activity, from the busiest
class B airport (JFK, Boston Logan, BWI, etc) to the smaller, slower class D
airport (very small towered airports), and from center feeds (typically
higher altitude, en-route portions) to HF (Atlantic ocean crossing routes).

Perhaps the most entertaining ATC feed on LiveATC.net that draws the most
listeners every day is the JFK (John F Kennedy airport, New York City) ground
feed, whereby you can listen to the organized chaos of controllers directing
lots of aircraft from the gates to the runways and visa versa. With a
combination of NYC controller attitude to pilots who cannot understand the
complex taxi instructions, there are always tense or humorous moments.

http://audio.liveatc.net:8012/kjfk_del_gnd.m3u

However, if you desire the complex air coordination, Boston Approach or any
of the New York approaches, at:

http://audio.liveatc.net:8012/kbos_final.m3u
or
http://audio.liveatc.net:8012/kjfk_app_final.m3u

These are especially interesting when a strong line of thunderstorms is about
to move into the area. Check your favorite weather radar site, then hop over
to LiveATC.net and pick a feed for an airport about to be overrun by
thunderstorms.

I volunteer the Syracuse, NY, feed. Syracuse is a class C (moderately busy
mid-sized airport) in upstate NY. This feed blends approach with tower to
provide a more complete picture of the first or last 15 minutes of a flight.
This feed is he
