NYARTCCFAN I love the picture of the EMB-170 I flew on one from BTV-DCA over the summer. I was coming home from BNA on June-27-2006 to DCA and arrived there on  a CRJ-200 US Airways. I arrived at 11:30 and never left until 7pm when my flight was suppose to leave at 3pm but it was severe thunderstorm after another then I sat on the plane from 5pm-7pm while there fixed a guage on the plane, but I watched a lot of flights land, taxi,and takeoff so it was great. If you go to jetphotos.net and go to DCA and find the pictures from June-27-2006 you can see planes land right before the storms hit. GREAT PHOTOS GREAT TIMES.

this might be the link to one or all of the pictures but i'm not sure because there is a problem right now so I can't look at it.

As much as it is interesting to read polls of what feeds many would like to hear, it really is an exercise in futility (with all due respect, of course).  This site exists primarily due to the generosity of Dave, the founder, but it also exists because of the many, many volunteers who volunteer their time, equipment, and always-on Internet service to send feeds from around the world.

Having a poll will not help get your favorite feed up and running any faster because the founder has relatively little control of who actually comes to him with a feed site.   

If you live in a city of an airport that you would like to hear and assuming you cannot provide the feed yourself, you are better off printing the LiveATC.net flier (found here http://www.liveatc.net/LiveATC_flyer.pdf (http://www.liveatc.net/LiveATC_flyer.pdf)) and posting it around the general aviation terminal of your favorite airport.

No problems at all!  I had felt compelled to add the comment about how feeds are added in the event you might have been hoping that the site founder would act on the results of your poll.   

By the way, there are also many airports I would like to see added here, but we need to find those willing to volunteer to do so.  Spreading the word about the website is often the best way to move in that direction.
