Brief Description:

After a flight in controlled airspace, have you ever thought: why did the controller say that? Or, what did that mean? At this pilot controller forum you will have an opportunity to learn about the structure of air traffic control and directly ask the controllers specific questions. We will begin the day with a brief presentation from Cleveland Center, with the main focus on the question and answer session afterwards.
