As a regular business traveler, I can take air travel for granted at times. This video provides a neat perspective, the coordination all these flights require really is impressive!

Ya it's quite amazing and i wonder how much of it is freight compared to passenger?

That is a great perspective!  Also shows the amount of stress Air Traffic Controllers are under.  I've heard that our Air Traffic Control systems are very outdated and need to be upgraded to keep up with the demand and future.

Talk about pushing Tin.

5k airplanes in the sky at a time is a huge undertaking in managing our airspace.

I used to travel a great deal more for work and have a good appreciation for what it takes to safely defy gravity. Some stories I've heard will make you laugh and others will make you wish you never heard them.

Looks like "Attack of the Ants"!! 

Seriously, cool video!  Fortunately our airspace is so massive, rarely does a "deal" happen.  System does need more computer and communication upgrades, but all in all our air travel track record is excellent.
