Abandoned & Little-Known Airfields
From the website: "As a pilot, a particular interest of mine has always been the abandoned airfields that dot the landscape of part of this country, as well as other unusual & little-known airfields. Both for their potential safety value to a pilot in an emergency, and also for their sometimes fascinating history, this particular topic has always held my curiosity. When I'm a passenger on commercial flights, I've always found myself looking out the window, constantly looking for airfields below. When I fly as a pilot myself, I've always tried to land at as many airports as possible, to learn a little about each one.
From Yahoo Picks: "Run by high-flyin' pilot Paul Freeman, the site gives visitors a chance to buzz 1,100 airfields in all 50 states. We don't care what the topic is; researching and writing about 1,100 of anything would make most folks crazy enough to jump without a 'chute. Take a look at the photos, maps, and history that stretch from Alaska to Virginia and you'll understand why this flyboy's curiosity takes off."

ATCsimulator2 - The Premier ATC simulator for the PC.

X-Plane is simply the world's most stunning and comprehensive flight simulator available for PCs.

How Air Traffic Control Works – How do aircraft keep from colliding with each other? How does air traffic move into and out of an airport or across the country? The task of ensuring safe operations of commercial and private aircraft falls on air traffic controllers. They must coordinate the movements of thousands of aircraft, keep them at safe distances from each other, direct them during takeoff and landing from airports, direct them around bad weather and ensure that traffic flows smoothly with minimal delays.
Read this great primer from the How Stuff Works website. Includes sections (with illustrations) on Departure, En Route and Descent, Approach, Landing, Career Training, and Air Traffic Control Problems.
