More Cool Stuff

This video shows what appears to be an air traffic controller's radar depiction of a bunch of FedEx planes navigating around a thunderstorm to land in Memphis. It has been accelerated and set to music for your viewing pleasure, and even then the air traffic controller's job seems stressful.

  • J Shades, I've seen this in person from the ground at the tower in Memphis. One of my airlines is headquartered in Memphis and gave me the "hub tour." It is fascinating to see how smoothly FedEx brings all its aircraft to MEM between 12:30 AM and 2:00 AM and then launch them only a few hours later (even crazy without the thunderstorms).
