Chicago O'Hare Air Traffic Controller, Mike McCabe

Today's episode is an amazing one. Chicago O'Hare Air Traffic Controller Mike McCabe joins us to explain how he and his colleagues keep us safe in the skies above Chicago. We dive into questions from nervous fliers such as:

1. How do you keep airplanes separated?

2. Is being an air traffic controller stressful? What is the most stressful part of the job?

3. What do you do if you have to have an airplane do a go-around? Where do they go?

All of these and much more. This episode lasts well over an hour and Mike and I could have gone another two hours I am sure.
