Title: ATC Game....
Post by: JALTO on September 15, 2005, 09:13:42 AM: I'm not sure how many of you have seen this website before but its a ATC related game. You will have to create an acct. in order to use the site. Good for killing time at work!

Hopefully this link will stay up for a while unlike my last post.

Enjoy!

Title: Realism?
Post by: danielvs on September 21, 2005, 04:01:34 PM: Well, I didn't play the game but... Intercept the ILS at 1.8 mi from the runway, max. 100 knots and max 1000 ft? At least that's what's written in the rules page.
All that seems quite unrealistic to me.
Even Tracon is more realistic...

Post by: duncan77 on February 20, 2006, 11:14:04 AM: I just found this game on the web (free), if anybody is interested:

http://atc.flygsimulator.se/

It's pretty cool - you can issue voice commands through a microphone if you want, and you have to sequence arrivals and departures (pretty much anything below 10000). It's got some quirks, but overall I found it quite addicting.

Cheers!

Post by: Haribda on March 08, 2006, 06:03:07 PM: I play (the first game posted) for a month now and my personal high score is 745. I friend of mine at LWSK told me about it, I know that he listens to the feeds so I think he reads the forum - Thanks J, I appreciate it!

Anyway, I'll try the other one now.

Post by: Haribda on March 08, 2006, 06:11:33 PM: I almost forgot, for those who are interested in downloading, I have a small tip. Clear all the cache from your browser, and than load the game. When it's finished, just go to your Internet Temporary Folder, and you'll find the object. Just open it with Internet Explorer and it will work.

It works for me.
