There is a seasoned controller at New York Approach (N90), who sounds like when he isn’t controlling he drinks whiskey and smokes non stop. With that said, he is super laid back on the radio and also incredibly efficient and competent. It’s a joy to hear his very distinct voice. He usually says “Good job”, “Hey Buddy” and makes audible grunts and conversational comments on the radio which are hilarious. He sounds like he doesn’t have a care in the world, like he is in the zone.
He typically works 128.55/120.15, the JAIKE arrivals at the NJ satellites and the PHLBOs at EWR.
Anyone know who I’m talking about? His style is so distinct I wanted to know who he was, he reminds me of “Kennedy Steve” back in the day.
I know NY airspace can be busy, but I appreciate the competency of the controllers. It’s much better than going into MIA approach or center. Ugh.

Back in the day there was a CLT clearance delivery guy who read out every departure/route clearance in the form of an "Auctioneering Voice" announcement. Great stuff.

The way she said, “Information Papaaaahaaaaaahhhhh.”
That’s probably the most Embry-Riddle thing I’ve ever read.
