Tower 2011 (PC DVD)
Tower! 2011 is an addictive and engaging stand-alone air traffic control simulation ¿¿¿ and above all a very realistic one! With a complex and authentic command structure, advanced AI (Artificial Intelligence) and Speech Recognition technology, Tower! 2011 lets you experience the thrill of being a real air traffic controller.
Take control in this exciting ATC simulation!
There are numerous Arcade-style air traffic control games, but few simulations approach the accuracy and realism of Tower! 2011. This simulation replicates exactly the procedures needed to guide aircraft of various sizes and capabilities in and out of an airport, from landing and take-off clearances on the active runway to aircraft movements on taxiways and in terminal and parking areas.
Tower! 2011 provides ground and air radar screens and top-down photorealistic views of the airport, and Speech Recognition technology allows you to control the realistic behaviour of the AI aircraft according to real-world traffic control procedures.
Product DescriptionTower! 2011 is an addictive and engaging air traffic control simulation, where you'll gain experience by directing the arrivals and departures at smaller airports before stepping up to the challenge of controlling a major international airport! Your assignment is to guide aircraft of various sizes and capabilities to and from the active runway for landing and take-off. As the Tower Controller you must make certain that it is safe for a plane to enter or cross a runway, assign taxiway routes, decide when to stop and start aircraft movements, and clear aircraft for take-off. Tower! 2011 provides you with flight strips, ground and air radar screens and a photorealistic top-down view of the airport. This is no arcade game! With a complex command structure, advanced AI and Speech Recognition technology, Tower 2011 will allow you to experience of the thrill of being a real air traffic controller.Features Multiplayer online play Three photo-realistic airports Advanced AI (Artificial Intelligence) pilots follow complex tower commands to taxi around the airport and fly approach and departure procedures Full voice control possible using Microsoft's speech SDK voice recognition technology Photo realistic 2D graphics with dynamic lighting, shadows and ground traffic Create new airports, schedules and aircraft using the same editors used by the development team Aircraft will follow in-flight heading and turn command Runway racetrack pattern commands are simulated Runway assignments for arriving and departing aircraft may be changed After take-off headings can be assigned to aircraft prior to departure Runway intersection take-offs are simulated Many of the newly issued FAA commands are simulated (such as 'line up and wait', 'taxi to ramp/apron') Taxiway routing to and from park
