Title: Air traffic control game on android
Post by: Buzzard on November 01, 2014, 10:36:04 AM
Having just started to delve into the world of apps on Android I came across one called Endless ATC.

Although it doesn't reflect real airports or flights it does mimic the way controllers direct planes very well.  You have to control inbound aircraft to a runway by maintaining separation, height and distance, whilst all the time keeping them away from departures which follow predefined routes.

Here's a link to Google Play if you'd like to know more

and here's some instructions

Enjoy if you download it.  I've found it very addictive.

 :thankyousign:
I used to have very similar game on my Spectrum (yes I'm that old :bounce: :bounce: :bounce:) which was very addictive.
I have now downloaded it onto my Hudl and I can see it is going to take up a lot of my time!
Now all I want is a similar one for the PC.........

Me too and I've still got it.  Now whether the tape is still any good is another matter!
