FAM TRIPS

ATC CAREER: One of the best benefits/perks/privileges of Air Traffic Controllers were the "FAM TRIPS" we enjoyed on the jump seat (behind the Captain) of different airlines and different types of jets. (We filed a trip report on return as we monitored the Communications and Navigational systems of the FAA.)
