Short description
Vector Approach is a minimalist ATC Radar trainer. Use mouse and keyboard commands to identify traffic (“Roger”), vector, sequence arrivals, manage departures with runway timing. Check 5-NM separation, capture the ILS or issue go-arounds. Fast to start, hard to master.
About this game
APP Radar Sim is a minimalist real-time approach air traffic control simulator focused on realistic radar-based ATC operations. You take the role of an approach controller , responsible for managing arriving and departing aircraft around a single airport. Aircraft appear on the radar scope inbound toward the runway or waiting for departure. Your task is to safely guide traffic, maintain separation, and keep the flow of aircraft moving efficiently. Using the radar interface, you issue commands through a control panel . You can assign headings, altitudes, speed instructions, and approach clearances such as Cleared ILS , Report runway in sight , and Contact Tower . Every command you give is transmitted to the aircraft with simulated radio audio , recreating the feel of real ATC communication. Arriving aircraft must be sequenced and vectored onto the ILS approach. You guide them using radar vectors until they intercept the localizer with proper geometry. Once established, they continue to land and are handed over to the tower. At the same time, departing aircraft request takeoff . You must watch the arrival flow and wait for a safe gap before clearing them for departure. After takeoff the aircraft climbs through 2000 ft and enters your radar control area, where you guide it toward the exit fix before handing it over to area control. Aircraft behavior varies depending on type. The simulator includes turboprop aircraft and medium jet aircraft , each with different speeds and climb performance, requiring different spacing and sequencing strategies. Traffic intensity can be adjusted from the interface panel. Higher traffic levels increase workload and require careful planning to maintain standard 5 NM radar separation . The simulation includes transition altitude and flight levels , meaning altitude instructions automatically change between feet and flight levels depending on the aircraft’s altitude. Your performance is measured through a scoring system. Points are awarded for: successful ILS arrivals correct tower handovers proper departures handed to ACC Mistakes such as incorrect clearances or missed handovers reduce your score. Four mistakes end the ses…
