Air Traffic Control: How Hard Can it be?

[DohaRoha]

Great job on the video, and the interview, but you have got to work on that voice.

[Soccershamu18]

I am planning on studying Air traffic controller in the air force if i get the job. And i have been looking at different videos on youtube that give different General information. But this video gave a more realistic and more detailed information on the life of a ATC that i never thought of....Very informative and gave me a lot to think about....thank you so much for posting it!

[ibrahimhcaglayan]

A student did this? Fascinating! You can tell a pro in the making from the homework he does.

[braneden]

refresher training is to make sure you arent picking up bad habits most likely.

[MrJohnnycearley]

excellent work kid. If your ever Memphis way, come visit us at the airport for a tour.

[DryBONESreborn]

Cool project :)

[silvercat7]

I'm an ATCO and am currently involved in training of new ATCOs. I'd like to use this video for recruitment purposes, but am hesitant due to the lack of subtitles.

[looneyflight]

I LOVE the speed cam, iv seen it with cars alot but never with airplanes, looks really cool.

[MO81]

is it true if you wear glasses or hearing aids they don't take you in?

[corymike1990]

@MO81 im no expert but i have been studying aviation technologies for around 15 years, i remember reading somewhere that the sight of glasses, and hearing aids show an ACT recruiter that the person applying may have trouble hearing or seeing information. Thus Yes they will be looked over in loo of someone else. It's nothing personal its just the fact ATC is a job that requires EVERYTHING to be perfect. No Exceptions.

[azmirwhat]

Im A Type 1 Diabetic And my dream job is either A Airline Pilot or An Air Traffic Controller would i be able to become either of those

[Deltapilot96]

@FS98FSX I'm sorry, no type of diabetes is allowed for any type of pilot or air traffic controller. :( My father has diabetes (not sure which type) and he got diabetes just months after he received his soaring license.

[FS98FSX]

@Deltapilot96 Well i hear Type 1 diabetics can have a Private Pilot licence and have type 1 diabetes i hear you can be a corporate jet pilot with diabetes also

[Deltapilot96]

@FS98FSX Not an expert in this but I'm pretty sure no type of diabetes is allowed.

[FS98FSX]

@Deltapilot96 No i hear there are some.

[FS98FSX]

And there are a few type 1 diabetics who fly for Air Canada.

[Deltapilot96]

@FS98FSX You may be right, but I doubt it. I don't think any flying school accepts diabetes, during the medical examination

[phantom0482]

@FS98FSX you are partially correct as stateted in the FAA medical Exam Guidlines a medical examiner must deny a pilot medical Certificate if he/she has diabete mellitus requiring hypoglycemic medication... so you can if your diabetes is not so severe.

[MGCMuseGuitarCovers]

It's FSX...

[YagoRj357]

Congratulations, you did a great job!!

Look, in the flight simulator, you used the Janet Aircraft? The texture is the same of the Janet...

It's the secrets planes which land at Area 51.

[looneyirish007]

nobody notice the metal gear solid sound at 1:51

[Timsalt3100]

The network I belong to does anyway

[Timsalt3100]

I personally don't have the skills to do this work in real life but I have been doing it with flight simulator for 7 years and we follow very 95% of the rules that the real controllers do.

[Maize52]

Awesome editing man! I can definitely see you taking a career in something like this.

[mikesixer3]

Thank you! I've been searching all over the web for something like this. I'm in Navy DEP right now getting ready to leave on the 31st of October (week & a half left) to be an air traffic controller and this was very helpful. I needed to hear what the lady was talking about, it put me at ease about the job. again thank you!

[DE5TROY]

does the level 5-12 also apply in Canada?

[DE5TROY]

This is through the US right?

[Agent92]

@DE5TROY Yes, the Air Traffic Controller I interviewed was from Kansas, so, yes.
