Because air traffic controllers are busy at larger airports, the recording is done by an automated voice. The air traffic controller will type out an ATIS message using the digital ATIS system instead of taking the time to record the message personally. At smaller airports, however, it is not unusual for a message to be recorded by the controller using either the PC-ATIS or solid-state system. To streamline important information, the ATIS formats across the world follow similar formats and layouts.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>An Automatic Terminal Information Service (ATIS) is a continuous broadcast service of information related to an airport and is accessed by the pilot in command and flight crew of any flight.","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":60803,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"inline_featured_image":false,"footnotes":""},"categories":[1402],"tags":[978],"acf":[],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.stratosjets.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/62832"}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.stratosjets.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.stratosjets.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.stratosjets.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.stratosjets.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=62832"}],"version-history":[{"count":1,"href":"https:\/\/www.stratosjets.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/62832\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":88286,"href":"https:\/\/www.stratosjets.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/62832\/revisions\/88286"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.stratosjets.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/60803"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.stratosjets.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=62832"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.stratosjets.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=62832"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.stratosjets.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=62832"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
