Free Ask ATC webinar slated

By General Aviation News Staff · June 15, 2021 ·

It’s not uncommon for pilots to have some fear of interacting with Air Traffic Control (ATC). Many are often concerned with making a mistake or of being judged by others on the frequency. Not only is that the wrong attitude, but it can also deprive you of valuable services and even compromise safety, say officials with Sporty’s Pilot Shop, who have slated a free Ask an Air Traffic Controller webinar Thursday, June 17, 2021, at 7 p.m. Eastern time.

“Controllers are humans just like pilots, and they’re actually there to help,” Sporty’s officials note.

ATC Specialist Eddie Albert from Cincinnati Approach Control will be on hand to share what controllers expect from pilots, plus some tips for your next request to ATC.

Pilots will be able to ask questions during the webinar.

You can sign up for the webinar here.
