Hello guys & gals!

Just wondering if anybody knows of a frequently updated ATC-blog anywhere? I've been googling for it the last few days but can't seem to find anything....

:rolleyes:

Unlikely, the last ATC blog I heard of was published massively out of context with a picture of the blogger in the Irish Mail on Sunday, which resulted in all kinds of horror.

Try Get the flick (http://gettheflick.********.com/)by Don Brown, ex Atlanta controller/safety rep. Primarily US themes, but very good reading and rapid updates.

Can you elaborate on this 275 one? It really intrigued me:eek:

One of our assistants decided to start a blog about his training. He wrote too much truth and sadly is no longer with us.

The wind was subtly different that day. Some days, are you ready for this, I might even use 265.

Need to have an extra beer when I get home after the stress of days like that!

You obviously didn't have the same OJTI that I did. He stated that all good headings ended in a 5.
His rationale was that the pilot would think that you had thought about it more:ok:

There used to be some blogs on the civilair website in OZ..haven't looked for ages so couldn't tell you if they were still there.
