Headings is the most realistic Air Trafic Control (ATC) radar simulator and trainer for iPhone and iPad you will find. From complete newbie to seasoned ATCO, there is a mode for you. Learn about ATC techniques and tools such as vectoring, speed control, QDMs, aircraft performance and more. Also includes a Eurocontrol FEAST-II part 2 training mode so you can train estimating headings just by sight while also constantly shifting focus to different aircraft. (what we call scanning and is an essential skill for these kinds of tests) Acquire and hone new skills, then compete for the top spot on the leaderboard to see if you can beat real Air Traffic Control Officers (ATCOs). Scenarios currently include Dubai International, JFK (New York), Heathrow (London), Zaventem (Brussels), Schiphol (Amsterdam), Rome (Fiumicino) and New Delhi (Indira Gandhi) featuring actual aircraft callsigns and types from those locations. Or choose your custom runway direction you'd like to train on. 6 difficulty levels per scenario allow you to really become accustomed to the airspace and also focus training on a certain type of traffic. Extreme traffic modes make you experience the true at the top of focus/edge of drowning feeling just like real traffic does. For valid ATCOs, please add your 4-letter Unit identifier in your gamecenter name to show up in the leaderboards with your unit. This is version one of a one-man project. Love the job so much that I decided to make my own training/refreshing/game tool to enjoy during off days :-) Ad-free for life hence the initial one-time purchase. If you have any questions, suggestions, comments or requests for new airports/airspaces please send me an email at headingsatc@icloud.com. Screen size of the iPhone currently limits some airspace possiblities. In the works: Voice control, New headings game mode, bigger airspace which is GPS accurate SID/STARs, etc. Of course that will be free for those who support this version. Thank you and regards, N.}

40 years ATPL of which 33 flying heavies out of LHR and LGW I’ve always admired the London ATC controllers. It’s not an easy job is it! Thank you to all of them and the other ATCOs around the world, but perhaps not the Australian ones 😂

To my knowledge the most realistic Atc game out there in the App Store. Simple, straightforward and challenging if you want it to be! Works extremely well. If you’re into ATC this game is well worth the one time purchase. Hoping for possible pilot voices in the future and maybe some paperwork/tutorials on official arrival and departure procedures? Thank you for a great game 🫡

This simulator offers simplicity along side realistic airspace’s and aircraft behaviours. This has been crafted with passion. The only criticism is an idea, if there was a setting to change tag size, it would be really helpful.

This is one of the best ATC games out there. The controls are quick to learn. It would be great if you had default approaches you could put planes on and then vector to final. Maybe have a small failure rate where the pilot misses a turn or command. The only thing I noticed is the observed speed thresholds below 10k don’t apply. These are minor callouts as the single dev delivered a great experience.

Finally there is a proper platform where you can test your skills. I give 4 stars because I am positive about future updates, like zoom or more fix point to instruct the aircrafts during approach. Overall nicely done

This seems to be the best one I have tried. I would love to see SID/STAR incorporation with descend and climb via clearances. More intersections to aid in vectoring. More airports with intersecting landing runway operations. One thing I don’t like is the random generation in the very beginning. The aircraft should generate from a waypoint handoff. Otherwise a great trainer/game from a one man team. Added the 5th star because the developer cares about his product and communicates to the custome. Bravo :-)

Bugfix: - Fixed a crash on iPad when selecting an aircraft using the Pencil with hover effects on. Just became a dad so please standby for more frequent updates :) Next version will add a completely new game mode to test your heading skills.

A very small update: - Fixed a bug for FEAST and Skill Exercise modes that would uncenter the simulation area. Just became a dad so please standby for more frequent updates :) Next version will add a completely new game mode to test your heading skills.
