LiveATC.net audio streaming service

LiveATC.net is a specialized digital service providing live air traffic control (ATC) broadcasts from around the world. Founded by Dave Pascoe in 2003, the platform was created to provide a resource for student pilots, aviation enthusiasts, and professionals to listen to real-time communication between air traffic controllers and aircraft. The service relies on a global network of volunteers who host receivers and stream local ATC frequencies to the central LiveATC servers.

The service is primarily operated from the United States, where the infrastructure and the founding company are based. It has grown from a small hobbyist site into a vital tool for the aviation community, often used for educational purposes and for monitoring aviation safety and incidents. The brand remains under the independent ownership of its founder, maintaining its niche position as the premier provider of live aviation radio feeds.
