SkyTroller™ is an air traffic control game for the iPhone or iPod Touch. From the vantage of your radar screen you watch as flights from across the country converge in your airspace high over Kansas. But don't get too comfortable... you have only seconds to react and keep aircraft in your sector safe as jets bear down on each other at nearly 900 miles per hour.
Air traffic controllers need cool heads and strategic minds as they strive to avoid "Critical Separation Losses". Plan ahead and respond quickly by assigning new flight levels as traffic conflicts arise, and you can stay on the job to play another day.
See if you've got what it takes! Score high enough and you never know, the FAA might call.

Really fun it just gets too hard really fast! And there should be a change speed option...not the biggest window of speed changes, but maybe a little. Otherwise very fun.
Very nice

Does what it says. Programming feels rock solid. Good ui. Would be nice if I could zoom in but not a big deal. Fun and great if u like aviation.
Nice one...

Does exactly what it states. The app UI is awesome. I like the graphics. Controls could be a bit better but once you get used to it, it seems pretty good. I would totally recommend this game. It is like you are literally controlling the air traffic.

This game is about simulating a job as an air traffic controller. You have to make sure the planes get through your screen without running into each other. You can't change the direction the planes are going, but you can change their altitude, so they can pass over one another. Altitude is controlled by tapping on the plane you want to select and swiping up or down. There is a nice detailed tutorial included on the menu screen. The game starts slow but quickly picks up. Local high scores only. Nice game for those interested in ATC, which is definitely this game's target audience.
Just like being an air traffic contoller

Solid UI, gorgeous tutoral but get's dificult really fast ! Hard to touch correct planes when multiple Acft on same IFR routes. Unsure why planes turn blue or red? Maybe levels in game with different challenges? Keep those updates coming, great idea, best of luck
Not a bad little game

This game is apparently partly the product of a long-time ATC vet. From what I hear about the profession, it's a good simulation of en-route control. Since there are no real planes (and thus no lives) involved, it feels a bit like Tetris. Two great features would be additional locations (maybe even departure and approach areas) and difficulty settings, i.e. ability to limit traffic density.
