Approach Control is a highly realistic air traffic control simulation developed by Big Fat Simulations Inc. This iPhone app is designed to give aviation enthusiasts a taste of the world's greatest job. With authentic pilot voices and radar behavior identical to real-world air traffic control, Approach Control offers a true-to-life experience in the palm of your hand.

As the approach controller, your task is to manage arriving passenger jets at various busy airports. Your goal is to establish these aircraft onto "final approach" safely and efficiently. Just like in real air traffic control, you need to strike a delicate balance between caution and expediency. A top-notch air traffic controller knows how to bring planes in tightly without breaking the "three mile rule."

Your main responsibility is to keep all aircraft at least three miles apart or at least 1000 feet vertically apart. By establishing the planes onto final approach without extra wasted space, you can earn extra points. To achieve safety and efficiency, you'll need to assign a mixture of heading, speed, and altitude.

Approach Control not only provides a challenging and engaging simulation but also emphasizes the importance of remaining calm, cool, and collected. These skills, known as the "three C's," are essential for real-world air traffic controllers who have nerves of steel. So why not test your skills and see if you have what it takes to apply for a real ATC job?
