Answer
You probably want a radio scanner for that, and a good one is here at Radioshack;

That should cover you frequencies just fine, and as far as which ones to listen to, it depends from airport to airport, so I would look into what they are using. around $100 US is a pretty fair range as far as radios go, but as to what brands to get, I'd recommend just looking at the ratings for each radio.

Answer
My Side of the Mountain is a 1959 book by Jean Craig head George about a boy who learns about nature and himself. The book won the Newbery Honour Award and was loosely adapted into a movie in 1969. Set in the Catskill Mountains near Delhi, New York, My Side of the Mountain tells the fictional account of how Sam Gridley survives in the wilderness of upstate New York. George's descriptions of the flora and fauna and how Sam uses them to not only to survive but to live quite comfortably are very detailed.

Sam runs away from his home in New York City in the month of May. He leaves with only a penknife, a ball of cord, an axe, $40 which he had saved from selling magazine subscriptions, and a flint and steel set which he had purchased at a Chinese store in the city. On his first night, Sam gets on a train north of New York in search of his family's abandoned and overgrown farm in the Catskill Mountains. He hitchhikes to the Catskills, and spends a lonely first night in his small hemlock lean-to (a small tent-like structure, that consists of a hemlock bow and a stump). He catches five trout, but fails to start a fire to cook them. In the morning he climbed a hill and found a small cottage near his camp, the residence of an old man named Bill. Bill showed Sam how to cook his fish and make a fire. Sam established a house inside an old hollow hemlock tree. As the summer passes his skills and knowledge of the mountains and of survival grew. He learned to live off the land by hunting small game and deer and gathering a wide variety of edible plants and nuts. He made clothes, bedding, and other useful things from deer hide and rabbit fur. Sam had many animal companions in his wilderness house. Early on he retrieves a baby peregrine falcon and names her Frightful. He teaches Frightful to hunt for both of them and they become best friends. Although he spends most of his time alone, he met several humans during his stay. Other than Bill, he meets Miss Turner, a librarian in a nearby town, and "Bando", an English professor. Sam gave him that nickname because he thought at first he was an escaped convict. Sam lived a free life in the wilderness for more than a year. During the winter, his father found him. Sam, his father, and Bando enjoyed a wilderness Christmas dinner. After winter Sam found himself carving out a nearby tree as a "guest house", despite asking himself if it wasn't the exact opposite of why he moved there in the first place. He then hears his father, and then his mother, and as it turned out his father has come back with all the rest of his family. The family immediately starts building a house.
