ATLANTA, Jan. 30 /PRNewswire/ -- The Tampa skies are full of private jets and commercial flights this weekend as spectators jet into Tampa for Super Bowl XLIII.
http://SuperBowlAirspace.com gives travelers and the curious public an inside look at the busy air traffic over Tampa.
SuperBowlAirspace.com today announced that it will offer free real-time online monitoring of the Super Bowl-saturated airspace above and enroute to and from Tampa's International Airport from now through February 4.
Streaming audio/video will give visitors to SuperBowlAirspace.com an unprecedented FAA air-traffic controller's view of the constantly changing radar images and pilot-to-controller radio communications regulating traffic between en route air traffic control centers, terminal approach controls, and airport control towers in and around the Tampa area.

According to ATCMonitor CEO Joel Lesser, "Tampa has only one major international airport which is nearing the saturation point. Air traffic controllers are stressed along with the airport itself. Tampa has run out of parking and has shut down its east / west runway to park aircraft right on the runway. The Tampa air traffic system is expected to be so heavy that the FAA has already officially warned pilots that radar services for Visual Flight Rules aircraft in the area may be greatly reduced and certain flight activities at satellite airports curtailed."
"Everything considered, the air show above Tampa -- particularly the precision passing of an aircraft from one control level to the next -- should be at least as much fun to watch as the Super Bowl itself."
