We visited the control tower at CFB Trenton / 8 Wing Trenton in Ontario, Canada. At this base, air traffic controllers manage not only military aircraft takeoffs and landings, but also parachute training, drone activity, gliders, fighter jet operations, and even wildlife hazards.
In this video, we meet Lt. Se-eun Oh, an air traffic controller with the Canadian Armed Forces, and Capt. Yena Choi, a senior air traffic controller, to learn about the role of military air traffic controllers, their training process, the real working environment inside the control tower, and what it means to serve as Korean Canadian women officers. Discover the world of air traffic controllers — “the legal experts and traffic police of the sky.”

특히 시뮬레이터 장면, 매를 활용한 조류 관리, 그리고 훈련 과정 이야기가 인상적이었는데요.
