Pushing Tin


I just watched the comedy Pushing Tin. Although the plot of the movie is based around the competition between two colleagues, it takes place in New York's radar approach center (TRACON). It gives a great inside look at an approach controller's job. I found this to be a great watch all around. I was laughing most of the way through and also enjoyed the ATC side of it. I would recommend it - especially if you are a fan of John Cusack or Billy Bob Thornton.
