   FSHud – Air Traffic Control Version 1.3 Officially Released

   FSHud - Air Traffic Control has officially released their highly anticipated version 1.3. This new version brings the most advanced traffic technology to your simulator world.

   Version 1.3 includes features critical to an accurate ATC simulation, starting on the ground. In the real world, when aircraft are taxiing, crossing a runway, taking off, or landing, smooth operations and safety must be ensured. Version 1.3 provides our most precise ground operations so far. With FSHud – Air Traffic Control, it’s actual ATC happening, not random events and aircraft placements.

   During the departure and arrival phases, FSHud - Air Traffic Control oversees all frequencies. This allows the system to effectively handle communications with both ground control and tower, while simultaneously handling all necessary procedures and clearances. For example, this ensures that the plane is ready for takeoff and that the runway is clear. Properly handled aircraft during these phases are critical, and allow for safe and smooth airport operations.

   In the air, new traffic separation, speed assignment, and vectoring technology has been integrated. This mirrors real-world air traffic control practices which maintain safe distances between aircraft by assigning appropriate speeds and navigation vectors. This is crucial for preventing conflicts, which is an event where two or more aircraft experience a loss of minimum separation.

   During the approach phase, since all communications between approach/departure control and the tower are handled by the traffic engine, we can properly factor in runway availability and weather conditions when setting you up on your arrival and eventual landing, with the proper transition to ground.

   In addition to the core traffic engine, one of the significant updates in this version is the new user interface design. It offers a more intuitive and user-friendly experience, with easier access to instructional videos and other information.

   With 1.3 officially released, we can now look forward to version 1.4. Slated in this next 1.4 milestone release are new realistic voices to enhance the auditory experience to bring a new level of immersion and realism. 1.4 will also introduce our speech recognition system to FSHud – Air Traffic Control. This will allow pilots to interact with Air Traffic Control using their voice, which will greatly enhance your simulator experience.
