Episode 272 Show Notes
Topic of the show: How can some airports run aggressive squeeze plays and compressed finals when some airports operate with much large gaps on a very slow final? On this week’s show, AG and RH discuss the major differences in airports that effect flow, efficiency, departure and arrival separation, and passenger experience. We also discuss how you can prepare for training in air traffic control. This is a packed episode and you don’t want to miss it!
