The Fulton School
On Wednesday, Blas and I went to Lambert to see the tower. The tower is the tallest part of the airport, with glass windows all around it. Its job is to direct traffic at the airport so that planes can land on the runway or land and get to their gate. The tower’s airspace is 3,000 feet to the ground. Something different between Lambert and Spirit was that Lambert had a map of the airport and showed where the planes were on the ground so that in case of bad weather, they could still know where the planes were, but Spirit did not have this. If Spirit has bad weather, they need to have the pilot tell the controllers where they are constantly so that they can control them to where they should be. Lambert has mostly commercial planes landing and a couple of business jets, but Spirit only has business jets and smaller planes. Even though Spirit doesn’t have commercial planes, they were surprisingly still busier than Lambert at times.

OK, I have to know, what is it like working with your bestie? I have always felt like it would be so fun to work with some of my friends. I think I would have a lot of fun working with my mom or brother, but the biggest struggle for us would probably be staying on task and not just talking the whole time. My dad and could NOT work together. I think we are just too similar and would get into our little arguments. My dad and I get along really well, but we definitely know how to push each other’s buttons and think it’s funny to do so.
It’s fun to work along side Blas but we wern’t really doing work, we were just observing everyone.
