:(comment ww: The flightgear MP protocol supports only 7 chars (max. 7 chars plus trailing zero equals 8 bytes, see [[Multiplayer protocol]])

::Well this should be fixed. What if multiple controllers controll with similar callsigns? (E.g. LSZH_APP_EAST,LSZH_APP_WEST)
* Inter ATC communication. Some method of talk/text just between ATC controllers would be nice, to coordinate handovers

* (done: SHIFT+F12) The ability to reload the airport without having to restart the whole application. This is while I am developing Routes, it's a pain to constantly have to restart the entire thing.

* (Done) Remove CTRL as PTT button, clashes with CTRL-Left click for "neglect", suggest Right Shift (ww: but the right hand is occupied with the mouse. maybe we move the neglected key to the right SHIFT. SH: If using FGcom, most of the time there would be no need to use anything but single key presses, so therefore any button would be fine. Remember LShift is the primary key for PTT2. Fn keys?)
