=== Web tools for ATC sessions in Europe ===
Some new web tools help planning ATC events are in development.  They was initiated by lenny64 who [http://www.flightgear.org/forums/viewtopic.php?f=10&t=19810 announced on the official forum on Apr 27, 2013] that he had the first version of a web site, [http://lenny64.free.fr/ lenny64.free.fr], that made it possible to see and plan ATC sessions at some of the airports in Europe. Since then it have become possible too file flights to some of them.
He later [http://www.flightgear.org/forums/viewtopic.php?p=183688#p183688 announced] that similar functionality was added by evilslut to his tracker and mpserver, [http://mpserver12.flightgear.org/tracker/ mpserver12].
These services makes it possible:
* To see planned and current ATC sessions at various airports
* To plan ATC sessions for those airports
* To file flightplans to at least some of those airports
* For ATCs to see what flightplans are filed to and from his airport
The airports currently supported by those services are (airports with asterisk are only supported by lenny64):
* [[Frankfurt am Main Airport]] (EDDF)
* [[Leipzig/Halle Airport]] (EDDP)
* [[Flughafen Stuttgart]] (EDDS) *
* [[London Gatwick Airport]] (EGGK)
* Luxembourg Findel Airport (ELLX)
* Marseille Provence Airport (LFML)
* Paris Orly Airport (LFPO) *
