Endless ATC

Endless ATC puts you in charge of air traffic at a busy airport. You guide incoming planes safely to the runways by giving heading, altitude and speed instructions while monitoring the radar. Each safe landing earns points; as long as you make no mistakes, both your score and the amount of traffic rise. You can instead set a lower traffic rate for a more relaxed game.

Airports and traffic

The simulation includes nine airports, each with a scenario, unlimited randomly generated traffic and multiple runway configurations: Amsterdam (EHAM), Atlanta (KATL), Frankfurt (EDDF), London (EGLL), Paris (LFPG), New York (KJFK), Tokyo (RJTT), Toronto (CYYZ) and Sydney (YSSY). You can also add airports by editing text files.

Traffic adapts and planes behave realistically, with pilot speech. The radar display uses simple graphics, while the underlying mechanics combine detailed simulation with controls designed to be easy to use by mouse or keyboard.

Realistic conditions

Your work can involve wind and storms, go-arounds, restricted areas, parallel approaches, occasional emergencies, nearby secondary airports, wake turbulence, delays and holdings. The controls are relatively easy, but the game may have a learning curve if you are unfamiliar with aviation.
