does anyone know if its possible to listen to live atc chatter on the net, any programs etc (free preferably) and also flight tracking (like airnav live flight tracker) but again free as i'm pretty short on cash. thanx for any input guyzPaul.

Yes sir...I have a couple of sites for you:http://www.terravista.pt/enseada/3705/http://www.squawkident.com/livefeed.htmlAnytime I am not flying VATSIM, I've got one of the ATC's going. Quite interesting actually. Hope this helps ya out!Harry

Do you mean like from a web page and/or through your media player?Here are a few links - I can't guarantee that they all work, though.http://www.cessna150-152club.com/http://www.jfktower.com/jfktwr/portal.phphttp://www.ATCmonitor.comhttp://www.km3t.org/bosatc/http://www.futurastudios.com/atc.html

Suggest you go to the VatSim site and tune in to the Atlanta The Hartsfield Macey two arrival channel. Lets you monitor the real thing with a slight few seconds delay to satisfy the authoritie's regulations. Also includes a radar screen for following the multitude of traffic NE of Atlanta
