The Flick -- A term used by air traffic controllers to describe a mental model representing the current and future positions of air traffic in a section of airspace. Controllers visualize the paths of multiple aircraft in terms of position, altitude, trajectory and speed. Controllers also refer to this as "having the picture." But the picture moves -- like a movie -- hence the term “the flick.”

Can You Feel It ?
As much as I hate summer in Georgia, I love the fall. It’s 12 Noon here, south of Atlanta, Georgia.
Temperature -- 72 degrees
Humidity -- 60 percent
Wind -- From the East at 10 mph
And the sky is BLUE
There’s barely a tinge in any of the foliage but I can feel it. Fall is in the air.
Where’s my hammock ?
