LISTENING GUIDE
How to listen to live ATC radio
Find an airport, choose a radio service and start listening to air traffic control audio online.
Start with an airport
Search by airport name or ICAO code. A busy airport may have separate tower, approach, departure, ground and ATIS feeds.
Choose the right service
Tower covers aircraft near the runway. Approach and departure follow arrivals and outbound traffic. Ground covers airport surface movements.
Expect quiet periods
A live feed can be silent when no one is transmitting. Reception and source availability vary, so try another service if a feed is temporarily unavailable.
Hear an airport for yourself.
Browse live feeds by region and service. Three tower feeds are free to play.
