ATC Zero

21 years ago at 9:03 am a Deputy Manager at the FAA’s regional air traffic control center on Long Island issues a command to clear the skies over New York City and its’ surrounding region. Not a single flight will be allowed in or out of New York. At 9:25 am an FAA National Operations manager on his first day at the job issues a nationwide ground stop, halting all aircraft on the ground from taking off. At 9:38 am that same manager makes the decision to land or divert every single aircraft either over the United States or headed this way.

Monsoon Season

Beginning in June and ending in September the Arizona monsoon season provides a much-needed respite from the hot dry days common to our summer weather. Along with the humidity comes an increased prevalence of rain and thunderstorms. This storm came up fast enough that I had to decide between making sure I was able to capture the storm before it blew through and moving to a more picturesque location. In the end, I decided that downtown Phoenix would have to suffice and the storm itself did not disappoint.

PHX

Phoenix Sky Harbor Airport quite literally sits in the middle of Phoenix offering unusually spectacular views of landing and departing to aircraft to the surrounding community. Approximately 1200 flights and 120,000 passengers arrive and depart every day. Driving to the top of the parking garage gives an unfettered view of the tarmac below and the mountains (some close, some far) that surround Phoenix.
