Besides the novels
by Paul McElroy and
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".
|
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. |
Tolkien - The Two Towers? |
Plazbot...
:D :D :D :ok: |
Sorry plazbot, don't get it........................
|
cambioso: ICAO document 4444 (ATC Bible).

cambioso is an ATC atheist...

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.)
