(I have pulled a lot of audio, but this one really hit home in a few ways.  One, how sudden things can change, from a seemingly "door popped open" to nothing heard after that.
Second, kudos to all of the aviators around the area, skillful and cooperative, and especially the controller, that man was a rock star.  I did trim out some of the non-essential tx's,
but to hear him not only control the airspace, but coordinate the situation all at the same time,  man is a real professional and a credit to ATC.)
RIP and prayers with the families.


ST. JOHNS COUNTY, Fla. – Two people died in an airplane crash that happened shortly after the aircraft took off from the Northeast Florida Regional Airport in St. Augustine Monday around noon, according to the Florida Highway Patrol.

The St. Johns County Sheriff’s Office and other agencies are responding to the wooded area near Torres Trace where the crash happened.

I too was wondering about the Air Boss frequency.  I could hear the Blue Angels, Air-Air, but never Air Boss.  Close Call was on.

They are recorded at LiveATC. Those two feeds have been enabled again so archives should start collecting. The feeds had been up and down and the archives has been disabled. Should be fine going forward.

Hi,
I was wondering why the live stream for TPA tower and ground works but the archived files say "file not found".
Are the streams recorded by LiveATC or by the person who hosts the receiver?
Thanks.

Aviation News (General) / Sydney new airport will operate without traditional air traffic control tower

« Last post by KB4TEZ on March 22, 2024, 05:34:51 AM »

(news story in link above, interesting.  Thank you 9news !!)

Western Sydney's new international airport will be the first in Australia to operate without a traditional manned air traffic control tower.
Instead, there will be a 45-metre mast fitted with 20 high definition cameras beaming live feeds back to a data centre.
"Traditional control tower, you look out the window to view the aerodrome. In a digital tower they will have cameras on a mast that will reproduce the image onto a screen," Nicole Lewis, digital expert at Air Services Australia, told 9News.

At the data centre, 17 kilometres from the airport in the suburb of Eastern Creek, artificial intelligence will overlay information over the live feeds.
"We'll have the speed of the aircraft, the altitude of the aircraft, the callsign of the aircraft," Lewis said.
The cameras will have infrared technology that helps with visibility in low light and bad weather, and will be able to detect items on the runway.
