Take control of the approach.
ATC-HAL is a real-time air traffic control radar simulator. Work live arrivals, speak in concise controller commands, and fly them down the ILS to the threshold — on real airport sectors.

Features
Everything you need to work the traffic
Built to feel like the real position — accurate enough to learn on, simple enough to jump straight in.
Real-time radar scope
A smooth canvas scope you pan, zoom and read like the real thing — track histories, leader lines and draggable data tags, redrawn every frame.
Speak like a controller
Issue concise clearances — turn left 270, descend FL080, speed 220, cleared ILS 25R. Long and short forms, just like a real frequency.
A flight model that flies
Aircraft roll into standard-rate turns, ease onto new speeds and vertical rates, and track the geodesic — no teleporting between ticks.
ILS & LOC approaches
Vector for the intercept and they capture the localizer with a lead turn, ride the glideslope down to the threshold, and slow on your call.
Real airports & STARs
Sectors built from AIRAC data — navaids, runways and STAR entry fixes that feed live arrivals onto your scope. Starting at Frankfurt (EDDF).
Persistent live sessions
Sessions run on the server and keep flying across reloads and reconnects. Pause, resume, and pick up exactly where you left the traffic.

One click, no new account and no password to manage. You're straight onto the dashboard.

Set up a session
Choose the airport and the active runways, set how fast traffic arrives, and start your session.
- 03
Work the traffic
Vector arrivals onto the ILS, manage speed and spacing, and watch them fly the approach down to the threshold.
The command box
No menus. Just clearances.
Select an aircraft and type the clearance the way a controller would say it. Every command takes a long form and a shorthand, and it's all case-insensitive — so you can work fast when the scope gets busy.
Headings in degrees, altitudes as flight levels, speed in knots, vertical speed in hundreds of feet per minute, runways by their end id.
