Just a thought,
What about the Virtual Airtraffic networks out there? Like VATSIM, I am an avid Flight Simulator fan, and I am also a Virtual ATCO for VATeir (Ireland), the Radar equipment is quite good, but how realistic it is, is another question. There is full voice available for all those with mike's. Enclosed is a pic of tonight. There was an event on at EIDW, but my pic was too big for my favourite forum! We had an ATCO for EISN CTR, EIDW APP, TWR and GND and myself as EINN TWR, later I was at EIKN TWR, my local airfield.


For more information go to:

No, that's virtually ATC.

Almost...but not quite.....

Sorry Stephen I was replying to TrafficTraffic, not you

I've had a little to do with some people from VATSIM in the past and I've always found them to be a good and very enthusiastic bunch.

Greetings to a fellow celt too

Maybe......

ATC Sims

Heya,

I was also looking for a good ATC Sim, reading the previous posts, I think i will stick to VATSIM, it may not be 100% correct, but it's close enough! I also have ATC Simulator, which is for US Tracons only, and even with speech recognition, not that good. It certainly gives you a challenge on DFW App though, and if your not a fast typer...dont try it!

As I said earlier, you will not find a better simulation in every way, of real UK ATC Ops than London Control
