Juneau Tower

February 13, 2002


ATC shows us the high tech equipment used to monitor aircraft at Juneau's VFR tower.


The view from up here is amazing!

Mike briefs us on tower procedures. Traffic on a stormy night like tonight was slack (1 takeoff in 2 hours), but during the busy summer tourist season, it can be nonstop action.
