Atc Game?

I want one that's a hybrid of everything. I hate the ones for android where you just draw circles and paths for them to follow, yet the ones with 090 d2000 are way over my head. i used to have a pretty sweet one where you could extend downwinds, 360's, switch runways, and then you had to deal with them on the ground such as cross taxiway or line up and wait. none of the:draw to the fueling station, then to the terminal and what not....gosh i wish i could find that one again!
 
When I was a customer service agent, I figured out how to use the gate computers to get online with no filter and played that game for hours a day. Sometimes I would do all I could but a person would insist on sending me on wild goose chases searching airlines that don't even fly to their city. "Let me see if Southwest flies to Medford from Phoenix...", vector stuff around LAX for 5 mins, "Nope, how about from LA, hold on...", continue to vector airplanes, ect. Good times. Since going to the ramp I haven't played much, set some high scores for SFO that were since surpassed it looks like.
 
I think it is definitely the best free one out there. It took me a couple of hours to get really good with the code but with the ability to pause and resume to find the command you need, it is easy to pick up. A lot of fun
 
I have no problem with the departures, but somehow, after clearing arrivals to 2,000 feet, which "they" respond to, nothing I do can get them to land. And when two A/C get too close to each other, my MAC locks up and I have to reboot.
 
You're not truly addicted to it until you start verbally shouting your commands as you type them. Yes, that is pretty addicting - and a great way to kill time from 4pm to 5pm on a Friday. I find myself getting angry at them too ... "Damnit Aeromexico, learn English and listen up already!"

But I have some serious issues with whoever the center controllers are who are bringing them in in completely random fashion. Seriously, can't we get some STARS up in there?

Take it into the Apple store and tell them your computer freezes.

"Sir what seems to cause it to lock up?"

"Well I've been working airspace around London Heathrow a lot this week, and every time I get two planes setup to join the 27s, arrival dumps someone in over Ockham and I've gotta slow them...loss of separation between Malaysian and BMI on the 27s is what last crashed this Macbook...I'm pissed."

...as the genius bar goes crosseyed.
 
I've been playing this one for a couple years. I paid the guy 20 bucks to get all the fields and he updates them every several months or so adding a few here and there. I like it the best even though its probably the most archaic as graphics goes, but it is radar control right? Its also totally web based so you can play it anywhere if you don't have your computer. I've asked him a couple times about adding sids stars and says he wants to but its really a hobby thing for him and doesn't have much coding time to do it.
