If you've ever wondered what goes on 'behind the scenes' of air traffic control, look no further than this nightmare of a video.
Using the LiveATC app, travelers can now watch air traffic control patterns in real time. As cool as that sounds I don't think I'm ready to watch planes nearly colliding with one another.
Much like the Citizen App which gives you up to date alerts about crimes happening in your vicinity, it's definitely a useful tool. But also this seems more anxiety-inducing than it is actually helpful.

@abbie.cheeseman Scary I’m glad everyone is okay. This happened at JFK on January 13th. ATC recording is from ATClive and video is from FlightRadar24 #aviation #planes #nearmiss #delta #americanairlines ♬ original sound - Abbie ✈️
