There is the limited possibility of ATC with v0.9.10 and v1.0.0. To find out how ATC should be used take a look at the ATC Tutorial.

Frequencies

Menu -> ATC/ AI

Set the right frequencies and around your choosen airport you can read (or here with festival) the ATC-Messages. For that you have to check under options "enable ATC". If you check "enable AI Traffic" too, you will have some AI traffic (c172) around the airports.

ATC Chatter

Menu -> Sound Configuration

Check "ATC Chatter" to here some random records of real-ATC. For the right feeling! ;-)

Frequency

Set the right frequency to COM1 with '-key you will have the possibility in some areas to send messages

ATIS (Automatic Terminal Information Service)

Set the right frequency of the ATIS to COM 1 and you will hear the ATIS for the choosen Airport (unfortunately a little bit low)

Multiplayer

Sometimes Someone plays the "Tower" at the multiplayer server with using the ATC-Aicraft. You can communicate with Menu -> View -> Chat or using predefined messages with Menu -> View -> Chat Menu. You can use FGCOM too!

There is not yet an artificial-interactive ATC implemented, so the ATC-system in FlightGear is still limited.
