en-route centre (CTR): free positioning of radar, no base airport or runway-related optionsĪI aircraft generated according to RWY capacities, ACFT equipment, intentions.

airport (AD): positions such as TWR, GND, APP, DEP at a selected airfield.

Location modes (available for all sessions):

student session (control traffic simulated by teacher).

teaching service (spawn and simulate traffic visible to a connected student).

FSD connection (as served by commit bc7d43, latest available in Dec.

FlightGear network connection ( FGMS protocol).

vectoring and course/level conflict anticipation.radar monitoring and identification of traffic.

coordination with neighbouring controllers (handovers, voice phone calls.).

It simulates many tasks of real-life ATC such as: or be limited to binoculars and a view of the airfield. Equipment may include radar screens, data link, etc. All control positions are possible, whether airport-based (TWR, APP, GND.) or en-route (CTR). It is designed to support a maximum range of ATC situations (roles, equipment.), at any world location and for every session type above.

tutorial sessions for teacher supervision of an ATC student.

"multi-player" network sessions (FlightGear and FSD protocols supported).

voice instruction recognition and pilot read-back) Tower viewing, following a departing aircraftĪTC-pie is a free (libre) air traffic control simulation program with strong ties to FlightGear.
