O'Hare Emergency
FAA radar recreation (with audio) of an emergency at an ORD departure sector from December '00. EGF230 loses pitch control and is vectored back to the airport in a scary sequence. This is an .exe program that plays back the actual radar tracks, using the FAA radar playback tool. (11MB)
Controller's Nightmare I
ATC tape of the ValueJet ("Critter") 592 crash in Florida
Controller's Nightmare II
ATC tape of the Alaska 261 crash in L.A. sector 14.
D-Side Test
Actual "final exam" (with answers) controllers used to take prior to training on the first radar position.
Near-deal
ATC tape of an "almost deal" I had at L.A. sector 4. I thought the old MD-80 Alaska jet which was behind the slower Eagle Flight prop would easily get above it before they lost five miles separation, but because I gave them normal speed, their climb rate momentarily died and suddenly I had 5.01 miles with 100 knot overtake.
