Cool LHR Air Traffic Control on Xmas day.

Remember, your life IS in their hands.

I know two of these guys, they really are quite professional.

Just a thought, but surely they can't be 'that' professional, otherwsie they'd realise that posting something like that on youtube could ultimately cost their jobs....LOL!!

Doubt it tbh, that's not the control tower screens but a backup system elsewhere, so this has been done over a few days, mainly in down time I'd say.

Plus they're way to savvy to put this up if it was going to get them in trouble.

Just enjoy, it's a laugh.

Outstanding, really enjoyed that one, and so did Mrs Leslie who used to be an ATC Controller.

Was always impressed at how they coped with heavy traffic when I had to do Duty Aircrew in the tower.
