If you arrived here via a link advertising a recording of an ATC session, click here or on the ORD Arrival Rush button at left. This page is now the home page of TheBigSkyTheory.com website.
Perhaps the first question many people ask is, “what's ATC like?” (right after they say, “that must be stressful.”) Click on the “What's ATC Like?” tab in the menu at the left to read my version of an explanation.
I have some good news and some bad news—the bad news is that location identifiers (such as familiar airport codes) are the lingua franca of ATC. To make stories concise and readable, I’ve used them throughout. I almost can’t help myself. The good news is that unless I’ve missed a few here and there, all of them can be decoded by rolling your mouse over the identifier.
