This is unfortunate, given that Heathrow connects the airlines of the world more so than any other. "They hide behind old laws that have no real applicability in a modern information society," he said. Pascoe said the UK prohibits listening to ATC, let alone rebroadcasting it. Unfortunately, UK law puts a stick in the spokes to listening to the ATC at Heathrow, the busiest airport in Europe and an AvGeek delight, with dozens of airlines from all over the world. Your local airfield might also be listed if there's a volunteer nearby. The coverage extends across North America, Europe, Asia-Pacific and South America. Here are the top 50 feeds worldwide, with JFK and Tokyo - Haneda (HND) top of the list. It's a rapid clip of controllers and pilots working together in an orderly symphony. At the time of writing there were no less than 17 aviation enthusiasts tuned in, listening to the comings and goings of planes with call signs like Speedbird (British Airways) and Shamrock (Aer Lingus) on approach or departure. See privacy policy.įor example, tune in now to JFK's Tower (scroll down the page). The Points Guy will not share or sell your email.

You can bring up the feeds via a Flash player or MP3, and there's even a series of apps for smartphones. Perhaps surprisingly, volunteers who live within radio range of airports (generally 15 miles) use spare radio and computer equipment to relay "airband" transmissions into the audio network. LiveATC is a digital feed of local receivers tuned to aircraft communications around the world. "From that point forward it's been the result of a large amount of crowd-sourcing and other activities that have enabled the network to grow." I couldn't hear Boston Approach from my home in central Massachusetts so I placed some receivers near Boston Logan, where those transmissions originate," Pascoe said. "I started it when I was working on my instrument rating. It runs primarily on user donations and commercial work setting up private ATC streaming. LiveATC was launched in 2002 by pilot Dave Pascoe. Student pilots use it to listen to their local airport to get accustomed to the myriad radio calls required.

If you've got nothing better to do on one night, visit, where anyone with a computer or smartphone and a passing interest in aviation can listen to control towers live, worldwide, and in full action. It's all in the language of pilots and Air Traffic Control (ATC), and fascinating for the aviation enthusiast. See LiveATC.Air Traffic Control in action.
