Got an Aviation Scanner

Just got an aviation scanner. ;)

Its mint. Was at PIK listening to TWR and some RYR flights.

LMAO.

"Airband Scanner"

My parents used to have one of those when I was about 8, they were fun at the time.

is it the same idea as a police scanner?

er...a what scanner? Explain?:S

''A what scanner?''

An Aviation Scanner, aka an aeroplane scanner. You can go to the airports and listen in to what the control tower is saying, and other aircrafts about the vacinity.

Metric, yes it basically works like a police scanner, except you tune into the APP, GND, & TWR frequency.

There called Air Band scanners, not just Aviation scanner <_< The scanner I have can do Aviation, Police, Fire and all that.

The one I had could do all those and also pick up landline phone calls until they made it all digital!

I have one, cost me about £80 lol. Had it a few months, can't work the bugger or out so it's stuffed in a drawer.
