How did they let that happen? It's pretty funny though.

You have to have an account to listen to that link. I'm pretty sure this is the same one though. http://liveatc-archive.s3.amazonaws.com/new-kjfk-controller.mp3 Couldn't you get in some pretty serious trouble for that?

Yea, need an account, but it's free. And yes, that's the same clip.

So, this is posted on LiveATC.net and now on SM. Pretty sure this is going to get back to the wrong person and that guy is going to get into some serious shit.

I don't think that controller is too worried about getting in trouble, obviously he knows everything is recorded. I few kids from my CTI school toured C90 and one of the controllers let us vector a few guys, he told us what to say of course. Not exactly the same thing as this but close.

I bet you my 2 year old can control better than your 2 year old.

Wouldn't it be kinda hard to pinpoint a specific guy???

no... you look at airports, aircraft departure times (callsigns), and controller(s)on duty.

Personally, I don't see the issue. I'm sure pilots don't either, and that's why none said anything negative, in fact just the opposite with smiles. Now if he was telling a plane to go around.... hmmmm...

I'm sure that the controller had to make sure it was alright with his supervisor and whoever else. Plus, the kid did nothing wrong, as far as I could tell. They only thing he did was give those pilots a good laugh.
