 '''''Terminal Radar Approach Control Facilities (TRACONs)'''''<br />
-Controllers in TRACONs monitor aircraft in the departure, descent and approach phases of a flight. Each TRACON can handle air traffic for several different airports in its vicinity. Recently, TRACONs in major metropolitan areas have been consolidated to handle many busy airports from a single facility. Consolidated TRACONs include [[Potomac Consolidated TRACON]], [[New York TRACON]], [[Boston Consolidated TRACON]], [[Southern California TRACON]] and [[Northern California TRACON]].  Some smaller regions have also received consolidated TRACON facilities, such as Great Lakes TRACON at [[Kalamazoo Airport]] in Central and Western [[Michigan]].
