Anyone got any suggestions for a reasonably cheap but accurate ATC sim for the PC?? I'm only a PPL learner,but would like to learn a bit more about ATC from the working point of view rather than just hearing about what you do. I've visited my local ATC a couple of times to watch the 'show', but am still a bit lost. Being an avid Flight sim (98) fan, I feel this would be a sensible add-on in a sense. Might enable me to understand the system better when it comes to my turn to contact you guys! Thanks TR

Thanks Nick
Didn't even realise there was such a forum on here - getting blind in my old age. Mind you this particular sim looks a bit hairy - I was hoping for something ever so slightly 'easier' if there is such a thing, but suppose it's a bit like flying - it's a complex task and not possible to make it easy AND realistic. Thanks again. TR

...try this ATC simu (ATC Interactive) for a free programme, compliments of the simu designers from Eurocontrol!

Thanks everybody - got enough to keep me going on with. Let you know how I get on. Probably end up writing to Tony Blair and demanding you all get medals for your job skills!! :)
