FCFree,

I can remember in the early to mid 80's American definitely, and I seem to recall Delta also allowing you to hear tower-cockpit conversations during departure and arrival. This was on their DC10's and L1011's respectively.

Not sure why they don't do it anymore. Probably just another channel to maintain/fix if equipment fails????
