Anywhere between 118 and 137 Mhz AM in 25 Khz steps. There are also a few using 8.33Khz spacing.

Just buy an airband scanner and save yourself the hassle. Maycom make one of the cheapest at £60. Bargain.

Interference can sometimes be heard on normal radio stations, with frequencies below 108MHz, an old classic being Piccadilly Key 103, when a/c are turned onto finals for r/w 24 from the south, you can hear that anywhere in Stockport!!!!

Certainly brings back the memories of Top Gun when Key 103 are doing 'You've Lost That Loving Feeling'!!!

You can listen to live ATC from the USA on the internet.

JFK is the best one on this list.

An Aircraft, Aeroplane or Aerofoil...
never a plane, thats what a carpenter uses.
I remember getting many a whack from my instructor for using that word. ;)
