description: ** Winner of the 2001 Ippy Award ** ** Bronze medal for the 2001 Book of the Year Award ** ** 2001 Benjamin Franklin Award finalist ** “The air traffic control world is off-limits to most of you and, consequently, often misunderstood. This book accomplishes what many media accounts, newspaper articles, magazine treatments, and movies have tried and failed to get into the minds of the men and women who are responsible for more lives in an hour than most surgeons are in a lifetime. 'TRACON' is a fictionalized account so accurate and chilling in its realism that it strikes people in the aviation business as a narrative summary of actual events.” — JOHN S. CARR, PRESIDENT OF THE NATIONAL AIR TRAFFIC CONTROLLERS ASSOCIATION
