Hi Curtis, That would be an option to investigate. If Durk's code can be modified to somehow accept a set of limited commands from virtual pilots would be great. It is a shame that so many things advertised by commercial ATC TWR simulator are available on FG. It just needs someone that knows FG i

Hi Roland, What I am proposing is a Tower Control Simulator for the Controller and not the Pilot. Typically in such cases one or more "pilots" will control several airplanes according to instructions provide to them from the controller. Depending on the type of control different instructions might
