Position report

The pilot reports a position and heading. Tap the primary target that matches both.

Departing aircraft

Release the departure, then tap its target once it’s airborne, before it’s more than 1 NM from the runway end.

Identification turns

Find out the heading, turn the aircraft 30° or more, and tap the one target that turns to match.

Squawk a code

Several aircraft are squawking 1200. Give yours a code, watch for the change, then check it and tap the target.

Squawk ident

Ask for an ident. Look for the blinking symbol, frame and ID, check the code, then tap the target.

Label recognition

Find the flight on the strip. Tap its label to identify it, or decide you can’t yet.

Alert wording on the labels is illustrative; check the real alert symbology in the simulator.
