Radio 4 Drama 'Control' by Adrian Penketh
 
It's not often there is a radio play concerning ATC, and I suspect many not aware of this one, available for another 29 days on i-Player: BBC Radio 4 'Control'

An interesting piece indeed. Wondering if I can just turn off the lights and play this at my next CRM/HF session.

PS - Just to be clear, even though Pushing Tin was never going to win any awards, it was great fun!

Especially the bit where you see Angelina's t1ts

Squawk 7500 25th Feb 2017 14:05

I almost switched it off in the first minute after the controller gave taxi instructions to a vehicle. I stuck with it. It was quite good.

And didn't I hear the Ground Controller giving take off clearance?

At least the frequency for Bristol Approach was correct!

I thought it was an accurate portrayal of some of the possible reactions to a serious accident. Very good.

Another play by Adrian Penketh on R4 today - "7500". Enjoyed this and "Control".
