Ancient lore is filled with stories of secret societies of Watchers. Whether the subject was werewolves, vampires or keepers of holy grails, Watchers followed their activities, tracked their movements and, when necessary, interceded to protect society or the subjects themselves from each other.rnIn some ways modern aviation has a society of Watchers as well, but in this case proud and expert professionalism replaces cloaked secrecy, pilots are very aware of and actively interact with the Watchers, and there is a mutual goal of safety and efficiency that binds aviators and Watchers together. Aviation's Watchers are, of course, air traffic controllers.
