Surprised no one has mentioned Elaine (squeeky) with LA Center! I always get a kick out of hearing her voice on the radio plus she is always super friendly. She also does voice over work for cartoons and such. Doesn't hurt that she's cute too!

Award for creepiest controller has To go to the heavy breather in DTW Ramp. Always sounds like he's busy doing something lewd up there when he's talking to you.

I always get a kick out of the guy that works DFW tower/ground that sounds like he auctioning off your clearance...

The Kansas City west sector (salina high, emporia high) controller who sounds exactly like Cleveland from family guy.

Also Amy at dfw ramp.

My all time vote would have to be "Buzz" in ATL TRACON. What ever happened to him? I once heard him talking to someone in a bar behind me and instantly knew it was him, looks nothing like you would expect.

#2 would be "Rocky" in NY TRACON, don't know what happened to him either, both consummate pros at all times.

"GREAT DAY, Sir!!" Still throw that out from time to time on the north downwind......

-ACY Tracon- nights back in the day. I think her name was Bonnie - so sweet it made your teeth hurt. Could chit-chat as long as the person on the other end was willing. But a rock solid controller.

-Every single one that got me around/through whatever crazy stuff I was tangling with in a plane that had no business being there.

I heard Buzz retired several years ago. I also heard many Delta pilots were at his retirement party, gave him an airplane photo, etc. It was great working with him. "...and you have a great day gentlemen!"

Many years ago (30yrs or so) there was a guy in EWR tower we worked with named Bill, lots of fun working with him too.
