How to play FlatoutATC

You're the air traffic controller. Guide every aircraft on your radar safely onto the runway — or hand it off at the edge of your airspace. Here's the whole game in four steps.

1

Read the radar

Every blip is an aircraft with a heading, altitude and speed. Tap one to select it and see its details.

2

Give clearances

Turn it onto a new heading, climb or descend it, speed it up or slow it down — building an orderly stream toward the runway.

3

Land arrivals, hand off departures

Line arrivals up with the runway centreline to land them. Send departures out to their exit fix and hand them to the next sector.

4

Keep them apart

Two aircraft too close is a conflict; a collision ends the run. Plan ahead, stay calm, and keep the sky orderly.

New to it?

Start at a quiet field on Novice difficulty — one or two aircraft at a time — then work your way up to JFK, Heathrow and the busiest hubs in the world.
