ATC Simulator?

[efq]

I was wondering is there a ATC simulator game out somewhere?
I wanted to learn about ATC and get use to it then hopefully take it to a Vatsim level.

Ill rep+ good posts.

Whilst I have the game, I havn't yet tried the online features, but you could try FSX DELUXE <<< IMPORTANT!! Normal version does not allow ATC.

All I know is that you can ATC in a proper tower, with radar, weather forecast - the lot. I would assume there is training for ATC on FSX.

There is Wilco's Tower Simulator. It's bad written but an o.k. game to play. It isn't associated with Flight Simulator 04 / X whatsoever. just contact me if you want it ;)

thats why mentors are there, they stay in the room in teamspeak guiding you and giving you advice while you're controlling, so you'll know what to do.

before you can become a student controller, you have to pass an OBS>STU part 1 (observer>student) exam, then OBS>STU part 2 and then you'll be able to control

Flying helps a lot too because your used to the procedures and the phrasology.
