Radar Identified: Tower & Approach

Control the airport, from stand to final

Radar Identified: Tower & Approach is an air traffic control simulator where every clearance changes the flow. Start with an aircraft waiting at its stand, keep an eye on an arrival approaching the runway, and decide what moves next.

Tower and Ground

Work traffic from the 3D tower, exterior views or the Tower radar. Use flight strips, the Runway Ops panel and an interactive ground radar to follow aircraft through pushback, taxi, holding points, runway crossings, takeoff and landing.

• Approve pushbacks and assign taxi routes
  
• Manage holding points, runway crossings, departures and arrivals
  
• Use flight strips and runway controls to keep the operation organized

Approach

Take the Approach position to build an arrival sequence before the aircraft reaches the airport. Issue heading, altitude, speed and vertical-speed clearances; use the game’s STAR routes and ILS approaches; keep spacing in hand and prepare each landing for Tower.

• Sequence arriving traffic with headings, altitudes and speed control
  
• Work STAR and ILS arrivals on the radar scope
  
• Track clearances, targets and approach guidance in the flight strips

Five airports, two control environments

• Düsseldorf — EDDL
  
• Cologne/Bonn — EDDK
  
• Bremen — EDDW
  
• San Diego — KSAN
  
• San Francisco — KSFO

Each airport has its own runway, apron and approach layout. Move between German and United States operations, learn the local ground layout and adapt your sequence to the traffic in front of you.

Watch the conditions

Operate in daylight, dusk or night with changing visibility and weather. Aircraft, tugs, service vehicles and airport fire vehicles keep the apron moving while runway and apron lighting changes the view after dark.
