* all airport sessions with a 3D '''tower view''', ''[[FlightGear]]'' must be available, with the appropriate aircraft models and scenery data—note that it can run on a separate machine, as explained [[#Airport scene rendering|down this article]]; | |||
* solo sessions with '''voice instruction recognition''' by the AI aircraft, install ''PocketSphinx'' (requires ''PyAudio''); | |||
* solo sessions with '''speech synthesis''' of AI pilots' radio messages, install ''pyttsx''; | |||
