I have to disagree there. London Control is spot on when it comes to the various displays.

Having worked with ATC (although not a controller) it feels right as well and the control is vis drop down menus which is better than ATC Simulator which was via speech and I never did get that to work correctly.

On the full version of London control you get a manual thats 140 pages long as well as a manual explaining each sector thats over 300 pages long.

When I compared the sector manual to "real life" it was spot on regarding how it works and the entry and exit details.

Have a look at the forum (http://www.londoncontrol.com), theres also screen shots there.

I agree, I'm a pilot for BA, and have been based in LGW, LHR, BHX and MAN. All the procedures are spot on, and its very odd controlling a flight i've flown.

You know you're a pilot when you drive off a cliff, and your last words are "Gear up!"

Airbus or Boeing
