Listen to SMF liveATC Radio plays SMF tower, ground and approach with a transcript as they talk.

How a flight moves through them

A departure starts on clearance delivery for its route, moves to ground for taxi, to the tower for takeoff, then to departure control and the en-route center. An arrival reverses it: center, approach, tower, ground.

Frequencies here are for listening and reference. Pilots use the current FAA Chart Supplement. How to listen to air traffic control.
