Novels about ATC

[wlatc]

Besides the novels TRACON by Paul McElroy and Radar Contact Lost by Richard E. Smith, is anyone aware of any recent ATC novels available on Kindle or other e-book format?

while it is not strictly ATC, it has great ATC elements...however it is not recent....."The Crowded Sky".

[ATCO1962]

There was one written many years ago in New Zealand about a collision between a light aircraft and a DC8 over Titahi Bay, Wellington. I thought its title was something like "Airscream" but I can't find that anywhere on the net. It was quite a good read and its central plot revolved around wrong QNH settings and the tragic results.

Again, not wholly centred around ATC, but with ATC elements:

"Band of Brothers", Ernest K Gann.

[TC_Ukraine]

Tolkien - The Two Towers?
:D and last part " The Return of the Supervisor"

Just my personal opinion, I thought "Airscream" was fairly horrible, although the premise was based on an event that actually took place. (ATIS tape put back upside-down after machine serviced. Played last months' ATIS.)
