Even the payware one above is too slow.ĪTC also needs to be aware of terrain - XPlane has already tried to get me to burrow through a mountain, and I only started running it last Saturday. Back in FSX it wasn't unusual if I was in something decently fast like a Citation X for me to get to the next instruction before the previous instruction was done being slowly rattled off. No one in real life talks as slow as FSX/XPlane/124th does.
One thing I really like about your helicopter demo that I've never seen any AI ATC do before is that it actually talks at a decent clip. Following initial contact, "Zero Lima Whiskey" suffices and keeps the channel more clear. A pilot should not have to identify as "November Xray Niner Zero Lima Whiskey" each and every time he talks to the same controller. Another time, it cleared me for landing while simultaneously clearing an AI jet for takeoff, on the same runway, opposite direction.Ībility to shorten phrases. ATC should have had one of us maneuver (I ignored TCAS to see if ATC would handle the problem. XPlane's ATC vectored me to final shortly before the jetliner blew over the top of me just as I was intercepting the glideslope. if I'm taking off from an uncontrolled airfield, I should still be able to contact the local area controller once airborne even though I haven't talked to a tower or ground.Ībility for ATC to be aware of virtual traffic. And it doesn't require you to taxi first - XPlane starts you on a runway but wants you to file a flight plan and go through the whole startup/taxi to the active routine.Ībility to start a conversation at any phase of flight. in FSX even the default ATC allows you to ask for takeoff clearance even if you haven't filed a flight plan. Things I think a sim ATC system absolutely needs:Ībility for the simmer to make requests that aren't on rails. The reason is, there are so many things to go wrong, and as discussed atc has been responsible for actual aviation disasters - so their current model is more only the lines of "atc will try to kill you", which is fine for a bit of fun, but why waste developement effort getting to a state that really won't be any better than 124th atc or vatsim.Īs a good starting point listen to flight recordings like Premier1driver on Youtube. (and the faa docs are pretty terrible too). I spoke to some people doing an actual aviation course, and their notes were literally "startup-taxi-takeoff-fly-land". I've been running up hours and hours testing autoatc - and not just because radio comms is hard and needs lots of practice, but because the procedures and process is really complicated and not documented publically (short of finding a course in becoming an actual air traffic controller). I think that is currently a definately maybe.ĭidn't see anything about it in the fsexpo presentation - which was physics and particle system in. New improvements in the ATC system of X-Plane are coming in the future.

Its also windows only, so i cant even install it. Saying pilot2atc is the best atc app unless you want something to do with atc hardly inspires confidence. I like apples, doesn't make apples good at flying planes. Its very likely an awesome flight planner for simulators.īut the topic is "what is the best atc app" not "what is the best flight planner". If you like "real live ATC" you have other options than Pilot2ATC.Įh, i simply said nothing ive seen makes me think its a good atc solution.

The software has a good support by the way and it also rumors, that in the future it will be full compatible with World Traffic 3. If it were bad, it would not be able to keep up with the market. Have a nice day spark, over and have to choose by yourself and it is very important for what type of flights you need the ATC. Furthermore and much more importend than this here is, that my couch cries my name. Your arguments are tiring for me and my time is too precious.
Buy it and try it by yourself or look YT, no matter.Ĭurrently it looks like for me, that you don't accept other opinions like yours. If you don't used it until now, you can't say its bad.
