Ah! That was just what I needed this morning :) Thank you.

Does he ever work tower? I don't think I've heard him on tower in a while...?

I think most of the time the rotate (i.e tower, ground, clearence etc..) through out the day. You just gotta catch them at the right time.

I like that guy and the friendly guy that's on now.  Plus the "good night great flight" guy.

Isn't that the "good night, great flight" guy? If that's the one, I think he's one of the more senior guys there. Maybe. Or not.  :?

Two different guy's.

I've heard them both say they've got 20+ years of experience in ATC. God I think i'm addicted to liveatc.net, but what else am i supposed to do at work!

I like controllers like this, they make everything just so much smoother and more fun.

This is great and much appreciated but how did it turn out? Did 81 get its flightplan? Feel like liberating a little more from the archives? Thanks.- Phil

Have to agree the 'Good night, great flight' guy is one of the best. Must be a great feeling to hear it if your up front with a transatlantic crossing ahead of you.
