'''ATC-pie''' is an [[air traffic control]] simulation program allowing to play solo games, connect to [[FlightGear]] multi-player networks and set up tutorial sessions for teacher supervision of an ATC student. It features en-route centre control (CTR) as well as airport-based service (TWR, APP, GND...) where 3d tower viewing is possible. It is essentially designed for realism and simulates many tasks and situations of real-life ATC such as:

It features en-route centre control (CTR) as well as airport-based service (TWR, APP, GND...) and 3D tower viewing with FlightGear. Voice instruction recognition and pilot speech synthesis are also featured in solo games.

The program is free and open source, and programmed in Python3 for Qt5 hence system-independant. Only Python3 and its Qt5 bindings must be installed. That done, it is meant to work straight away, with no make/compile command to run or external resource to install. The whole world is immediately available on radar. Tower viewing requires a running FlightGear installation and the appropriate aircraft and scenery.
